Thanks again everybody .
Their grandmother was Helen Scott Stuart born Scotland so I suppose they were carrying on her name.
The David Gibson who married Caroline in 1846 aged 27  I cannot make a connection to the Gibsons here at the moment.
  David Gibson was born 1800 here in Scotland his son David was born 1830 and went to Australia c1848 the name David Gibson has been carried down this side of the family it was part of my OH's grandfathers name ,an uncle ,a cousin  his son and a great grandson recently and yes he has also David Gibson in his name
