Hi - several of the surnames in your message look familiar to me.  My ancestors were Thomas Tennant, b1815 in Stirling who married Amelia Mill (sometimes written Milne) Watson (also b1815).  Amelia's mother was Elizabeth Mitchell, of Dundee who married George Watson.  There are several children involved and if you think there's a link I'll be happy to send you the full tree.  I'm still working on it.

PS - I forgot to mention, my maternal ancestors were Tennants, also from Dundee and St Andrews.
