Research
Name might be David, but could not find a Robertson with occupation of Joiner as suggested by the census entry for his wife [1724]. Closest match in 1901 census was a Damask Cloth Finisher.

1891 Scotland census: Alexander ROBERTSON, b.ca. 1863, whose wife, Jane, was born in Dundee, Forfarshire, ca. 1864. Similar, but Alexander was a Calander Worker. On the other hand, they were living in Liff and Benvie, same as her parents. They were still there in 1901 but Alexander had become a Life Assurance Collector. Also in 1901, Jane was listed as “Jane A. Robertson” suggesting she could be Jane Adam/Adams. Oldest child listed in 1891 was born ca.1887, so marriage of Alex+Jane would have been circa 1885-87.

1891 Scotland census: David ROBERTSON, b.ca. 1861, whose wife, Jane, was born in Dundee, Forfarshire, ca. 1863. Similar, but David was a Cloth Lapper. They were living in Dunfermline.

There was a joiner named David ROBERTSON, living in Glasgow Govan, Lanarkshire, in 1891, but appears to be single and living with his parents. He was born ca. 1863.
