This seems to be them 1851 census Cragill Burrelltown High St
David Duff 72 carter Kenettles Forfarshire
Mary Duff 28 Cargill
David Perrie 17 great grand child hand loom weaver Cargill
James 15 same
Susan Duff  39 Balgay Perthsire wife
Ann Wlitlaw 9 daughter Cargill
David 7 son all Wlitlaws
Mary 2
James 4
Susan 3mths

Either Susan is a second wife or more likely David's married daughter  born 1811.

In 1861 he's still there age 84 carter in the High St with a  maid Jane Mill 52  from Cargill.

You should be able to find his death cert on Scots people with his parents on that.

Hi

Thanks for the census info that was a big help

I have just found his death on Scotland's People he was transcribed as DANIEL not David no wonder I was having so much trouble finding his death!

Claire, David/Daniel/Donald are variants. This site here which I often refer to www.whatsinaname.net/php/search.php?action=search2&search_name=daniel only includes the Donald variant. However, I have often come across the David/Daniel variant too.
