Great James!

Glad you got it sorted out - it can be very confusing when each generation uses the same names - there are more Davids in that family than I can hold in my head! (as was demonstrated yesterday)

I need to refer to them all with their occupations or I get in a right muddle. But, a lot of the Dicks were masons..so I'm pretty sure there is more than one David Dick the mason!

I have quite lot on your branch of the Dick family, because they are, I think, a branch of my Dick family - our branches part company about 6 generations ago. If you'd like the info then send me a PM with your email address and I can send it on as an attachment. However, you may prefer not to have your fun spoilt and do it all yourself!

Best wishes
Lesley
