Notes about David Howatson

1. In the 1861 Census David is living and working with his brother John as an Agricultural Labourer.

2. David HOWATSON, born in 1809; Agricultural Labourer, Hill Farm, Loudon Parish, 1841 census, aged 30, with wife and 5 children; a Farmer there in 1851, with wife and 6 children; Lime Burner, 1873; he and Mary LINDSAY were proclaimed for marriage at Loudon Kirk, 27 November 1830; she was at Hill Farm, 1861 Census, aged 53, Farmer and Occupier of Nether Newton Lime-works, with 4 children; she was still there in 1871, but not as head of the family; she died at Third Part, Beith Parish, on 23 January 1873, aged 66, of Dropsy, the death informed by her son William.

David died at 22 East Street, Mossend, West Calder in West Lothian, on 13 February 1881, but according to the informant, his son Matthew HOWIESON, he was only aged 50 years, which is 20 years too young for our David - but Mathew also informed the Registrar that David's parents were William HOWIESON, Farmer, and Janet HOWIESON m.s. PARKER - and further, when Mathew himself was born, as HOWAT, in 1862, his father David was recorded as an Agricultural Labourer. It appears that all the evidence indicates that David HOWATSON and David HOWIESON were the same man, despite him starting a second family while his first wife was still living, although David and his second "wife" Elizabeth did record in Mathew's birth registration that they had been married in Ballantrae on 10 December 1860. No marriage record can be found on SP.
David HOWIESON had a second family by Elizabeth McKINNON or McKENNA (she died at Mossend, West Calder, on 28 July 1888, aged 48), as follows:
9. Mathew Thomson HOWAT or HOWIESON, born 1862; died 1927; married in 1899, Jane McGonigal SMITH, with issue.
10. Robert HOWIESON, born in 1864; died 1934; married in 1884, Sarah SHORE, with issue.
11. Allan HOWIESON; born 1866; died in 1891, unmarried.
12. Agnes HOWIESON, born in 1868; died in 1885, unmarried.
13. Andrew HOWIESON, born in 1870; died in 1889, unmarried.
14. David HOWIESON, born in 1872; died in 1933; married in 1898, Elizabeth Donaldson FORREST, with issue.
