« on: Thursday 11 December 14 12:48 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I am looking for any information of the above David wishart born 1789 in Abbotshall, Fife.  Born in abbotshall, fife, Scotland.  His parents were Alexander and Agnes Rattre and they had five children, Lily, Alexander, James,David and James.
David died in Abbotshall aged 52 in 1841  I believe he was married to Janet Bishop in 1822. I have all the family tree from the marriage to present day.  I just need any information on any of the family members of Alexander and Agnes's children. - in particular David...Thank you prino :)

David died aged 52 in 1841 so they would have been too young :(

Thank you everyone...
Davids wife  was Janet Bishop they married in 1822 Saline, fife.  The children are Alexander, Helen, Robert, Grace and David - my ancestor is from the son Robert, who married Mary Reid,who had a son David, who had my Grandfather William bishop Wishart (Bishop being Janet Bishops maiden name). .  All deaths reported between these years 1734-41in fife do no match for ages or years, except David wishart aged 52 .The family names seem to be Alexander, Robert or David, and as there is no mention of parents on the marriage banns I have not much else to go on except Alexander and Agnew Rattre.  I have discounted Agnes Meldrum as the dates do not add up.
