Hello Pat, Did a quick look around and found David GLOVER aged 33 Head of Household, a farmer of 50 acres employing two servants on the 1851 Census. David born Tinwald, Dumfries. His wife was Mary Ann aged 24 born New Abbey, Kirkcudbright. No children shown. House servant Mary LAWSON, unmarried aged 37 born Cannobie, Dumfries and a farm servant Jospeh INGLIS aged 14 born Dumfries town. David remarried your Jemima HAINING 23 July 1854 Terregles and 28 July 1854 Troqueer, both Kirkcudbright. Their daughter Margaret Anne born 1 October 1855 Terregles. I was wondering because of the tight timespan between their marriage and death of David, could some of Margaret's sisters have been children of his first marriage. Anyway good luck in your research.
