I looked this up on Scotland's People and this is indeed the family. The writing isn't the best and I can see how the transcriber got the name wrong --- the R does look like an N. Also, David is listed as 20 whe he's 24.
Thanks for your help. Where did you find the information?

That was from Scotlands People (aka SP ), using the basic free search and a lot of lateral thinking, helped by the info on the FamilySearch version and also the version posted by safc (not sure where from ?).
