Roger: To date I haven't been able to find any Piggy or David siblings but it is possible there is a connection. The year and place is right. The family name of the children of this marriage varied between Isbester and Isbister. The children are. David (b 1821) John (b1823) William (b1826) Margrat (b1828) Joseph (b1830) Mary (b1833) Betty(b1836) Thomas Christina (b1844) Les Kennedy
