I have not found any further data, events for David Johnston Wilkie. Haven't found any census records, but referring back to the Poor List documenting his Sister Elizabeth, I am presuming he is one of the brothers in service at the time Elizabeth was recorded on the Poor List, as David J. being one of the youngest boys in the family and soon would be an orphan as both his parents were deceased in 8 years hence. hw

Corresponding with a descendant of David Johnston Wilkie in April 2010 via ancestry.ca. I found much of her material based on a collaboration of researchers on ancestry and not all of the data was verified, thus errors occurred.
Elspeth Hutchinson & husb John had Robert Wilkie & Christian Paul's parents different than John Wilkie & Janet Stevenson, & likewise for Christian Paul. I shared with her my OPR births, deaths and the data on Elizabeth Wilkie and slowly we are correcting poor connections.

For David Johnston, there are still many unanswered questions. Where did he go in Scotland after his Mother's death in 1834? It seems by 1841, a Brother John had moved to London, marrying a Barbara Hay and establishing his family there.
David Johnston is recorded on the 1841 Scotland Census residing with Wm & Mary Wilson family (unknown to me as far as relations are concerned) - the Head of the family Wm Wilson is a shoe manager/ maker; David is age 15, and apprenticing in the shoe making business. No real proof at this point that this is our David Wilkie tho. as no Johnston name after the David

Marriage:
Oct 29, 1808 contracted to Robert Wilkie & Christian Paul, both in this parish after regular proclamation were married

Occupation:
Farm Servant at Bowprie Banks

Robert married Christian Paul on 29 Oct 1808 in Aberdour Parish, Fife, Scotland. Christian (daughter of *Charles Paul and Elisbeth Philp) was born on 16 Nov 1787 in Aberdour, Fife, Scotland; died on 5 Jan 1834 in Aberdour, Fife, Scotland; was buried in Aberdour, Fife, Scotland.

• Marriage: 29 Oct 1808, Aberdour, Fife, Scotland; Marriage record

Birth: OPR Aberdour 401 Births
1787 Novbr 16 Born to Charles Paul and Elisbeth Philp his Spouse, a daughter baptized the 23d named Christian.

Death Source: OPR Aberdour Deaths 1834 , Pg 42
Christian Paul, Widow of Robt Wilkie, Farm Servant, Burnbrae, Age 46, Died 5th January and was interred on 8th currt in the New Church Yard

Christian (Paul) Wilkie's death left all of her children parentless, and I believe none of them were married at the time of her death. Her youngest Child, David Johnston Wilkie would be approximately 8 years old. At this time, I have no idea where David went for care and loving - 8 years old seems young even in these times to be on your own.

Birth: OPR Aberdour 401 Births

Christian Paul, Widow of Robt Wilkie, Farm Servant, Burnbrae, Age 46, Died 5th January and was interred on 8th currt in the New Church Yard

Baptism:
It seems that Christian Paul's birth has occurred prior to the 'official' marriage date given in Parish records as Jan 31 1788 or 6 July 1788, thus explains why her birth not found on IGI or other sources, except the Old Parish Records and altho many other sources indicate this is probably our Christian Paul, I cannot state this as absolutely Fact
