Hi shona Have found you David Hotton on the 1881 census. Living in America at time of census. If you go the the familysearch site for the 1881 census put in his name date of birth 1837 and scroll down to find Scotland. some one has inputted alot of info especially in the Ancestral file there is details fo parnets and much more., It is obvious from here I would guess that he parted from his first wife.

Hi Wendy, Thanks for looking but I don't think this is the family. If it is, all his children seem to have disappeared. Regards Shona

Hi Shona, And here is I believe some details about David Marshall Hutton who would be about 12 had he been visible in the 1881 census Husband David MARSHALL HUTTON Pedigree Birth: 04 NOV 1868 Lanark, Lanark, Scotland Christening: Marriage: 31 DEC 1891 Uphall, , Lanark, Scotland Death: 14 APR 1939 Cessnock, New South Wales, Australia Burial: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wife Jessica ANNAN BARRET Pedigree Birth: 10 APR 1873 Lane Ends, Hunwick, Durham, England Christening: Marriage: 31 DEC 1891 Uphall, , Lanark, Scotland Death: 16 MAY 1938 Cessnock, New South Wales, Australia Burial: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Children -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Annie Thane HUTTON Pedigree Female Birth: 26 AUG 1893 Pumpherston, Midlothian, Scotland Christening: Death: 27 NOV 1967 Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Burial: 30 NOV 1967 Cessnock, New South Wales, Australia I double checked as much as possible so as to not mislead you and it seams that he obviously is the child of david Hutton and Mary thane otherwise why do ou think he came across an unusal middle name for his child? I will still look for the other members Wendy P.S cant find anything on the three Glencorse chaps other than parents names were Isaac Glencorse and Agnes Beveridge.
