there are four Rose children born to David and Christian between 1800 and 1820:

David 1806
John 1810
Charles 1813
Isobel 1816

I have a few ScotlandsPeople credits I have no use for so shout if you need any lookups etc - otherwise they'll run out on me again

I don't think that is the right baptism for David, though, because Burnsford isn't very near Rafford. I still haven't worked out which parish Burnsford was in! I found something that said Rathven parish, but Rathven parish is in Banffshire?

Looks as though Burnsford may have been on the boundary of the two counties? I can't see a baptism in Rathven though.

Ok Kite thanks.

Thanks Zoe I don't want to waste your kind offer unless there is a baptism that jumps out as being the right one for him re Burnsford.

I can eliminate him from my enquiries as I contacted someone on GR who has him in his tree but he is not the right one so it looks like it's back to the drawing board
