Hi. I am trying to find any info on a Robert King born in 1792 in Aberdeen,Scotland.I think he was married to a Mary Christie(born about 1800).they married in 13/12/1817. He was a Iron worker and they had a son called Alexander King(born 1829).I am very interested in tracing his parents as I have hit a brick wall.Any help would be much appeciated.

Thanks
