If you go into "seach trees" there are several people with David Bester in their trees. Maybe they will be able to help.

The name one of his wives which is my greatgrandmother was elizabeth wick 1874. I have been told that he had another wife and had many children by her and a lot of them went to canada.
Diddydoris my greatgrandfather was david charter because that was the surname of his mother.
