Notes |
- According to Stewarts of the South, Duncan’s father, John, had one (surviving) son who was “A brewer and innkeeper in Stirling in a good way. He has three or four sons.” Baptism records show John having three sons, however the 1814 Moss Census shows that two of those sons, Alexander and James, died young, leaving Duncan as the only surviving son. Duncan was not residing with his parents on The Moss in 1814 and would easily fit the description in Stewarts of the South. Thus, by process of elimination, it is suggested that Duncan was a brewer and innkeeper in Stirling with three or four sons ca. 1815-1820.
