Would someone be able to do a lookup for me at Scotlands people please. I am looking for birth and death info on this man and can find nothing. He was married to Elizabeth Caithness and they had 5 sons, John 1788 - William 1790 - David 1792 - Alexander 1799 and Joseph 1798. |

I should add also that someone suggestested a David Herald B1717 as his father but that seems a bit too far out of the realm of possibility as he died before my David was born. |

Did the family follow the Scottish naming pattern for their children? If so, it would suggest that David's father was John. |

It would seem so as David's eldest was John too. So that gives me a little more to look at. Thankyou for the help. :-D |

Why do you think they were born around 1770? |

It just seemed to make sense they were about that age. Really I have no idea. |

There are baptisms for both names on scotlandpeople, if you go back further for their DOBs. |
