      I have searched ancestry.ca for other possible leads on David Barclay - some dates match but without knowing who he might have married, his occupation - certainly I have located one David Barclay - married to an Ann unknown, migrated to USA in 1890s, which could be very possible, considering his Parents deaths in 1874 & 1885, and this couple of David & Ann are found in Utah in 1930 - occupation seems to be engineer of locomotive engineman in 1930 so occupation is consistent.
