a gardener named Don (ancestor of BBC gardening presenter Monty Don).
Don was more than just 'a gardener' - he was actually quite famous.
There is a biography on the web site of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh where he was Superintendent from 1802 to 1806, but I can't work out what the full URL is - google for George Don and click on

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
