Thanks for your response about George b. 25 Jun 1758 in Alves to John and Elspeth Brodie. I had rejected those parents because of the naming patterns. However, since I can only find two children born to George Brodie and Margaret Anderson, perhaps other children died. The only problem with that argument is that George's son William was born in 1792 and George and Margaret were married in 1791. George and Margaret's other known child was Margaret, b. 1797.
