• Notes

  OPR 401/3 Births - 1826 "Januray 3, 1826, Born to Robert Wilkie, Labourer and Christian Paul, his spouse, a son baptized on 8th named David Johnston" 2nd Source: Birth Source: Fiche, Dunfermline Library - 0027-0028;6025660 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 1851 England Census: St Giles Cripplegate, Middlesex, England David Wilkie is located at an establishment, apprenticing or working as a Baker. There are other lads from Scotland as well as other parts of the UK. David is Age 25 yrs 1852 - David Wilkie marries Eliza Rogers, the marriage taking place at Westminster, London, England (close to where his Brother John & Barbara ( Hay) Wilkie are living. David is Age 26, working as a Wine Merchant's Porter 1860 - Death of David Wilkie - Location Strand, London, Middlesex, UK - his age 34 yrs.
