Thanks Trish,

One of these could be my David even with the different spelling, his mother was illiterate.

His Mother Jeanie married a Englishman (William Roberts) in Glasgow Apr 1882.  I wonder if I find where in England William was born, perhaps that will give me a clue to whether one of these is David. :-\

Eventually there will be indexes with at least the mother's name - but otherwise it is tricky to know which, if any, are possible, although your marriage date has me confused.

If Jeanie married William Roberts in 1882, are you sure David didn't belong to him? In 1891 he is listed as 5 and 1901 17 - both giving a birth date after 1882  ??? The ages are certainly strange?

There are quite a few William Roberts in 1881  :-\  in England, or was he in Glasgow by then?

Hi Trish,

Everything to do with David Donaldson has me confused.  :-[

I don't think David belonged to William.  If you read what it says on his Marriage and Death cert, it sounds like he doesn't;

MARRIAGE: Parents listed as Jeanie Wyllie (now married to William Roberts, Masons Labourer)
DEATH CERT: Parents Jeanie Wyllie Domestic Servant afterwards married to 1st William Roberts Masons Labourer, 2nd James Smith Coal Miner (deceased)

David went onto have 10 children after he got married and one thing that has interested me is that 8 of them have middle name of "Donaldson" and only one with "Roberts".  I'm guessing, although I can not confirm his biological father may be a Donaldson?

The change of ages are confusing aren't they.  David was illiterate like his mother, so I'm guess that is why they changed so much.

I do not have an 1881 census showing William, I don't know where he was then.

Sorry should have said. 

I've checked out births registered "David Donaldson" and none (in Scotland) have a Jeanie Wyllie as the mother.  :'(
