Notes - Family #106.
David b.1859, a joiner, was in 1891 living at 37 Mid Street, Lochgelly with his wife Jessie (32) and children David (5), Andrew (3) and Annie (1). There is, however, no corresponding marriage listed in the STAT REG index, but the birth certificates of the fourth child, Agnes Hugh, 1894, and the fifth, Elizabeth, in 1896, gives the date of the marriage as 15 January 1885, in Methven. The young David (5) later married Mary Conway of Cowdenbeath and emigrated to Colorado.
In the 1901 census, David is missing and Jessie [42] is head. There is only one entry in the Statutory Register of Deaths index for a David born in 1859, died in Buckhaven in 1894; but this could not have been David the joiner of Lochgelly, given that his daughter Elizabeth was born in Kirkcaldy in 1896. There is in the 1901 household an Elizabeth [30], who is not easy to place: the only Elizabeth Dunsire born in 1870/71 is Elizabeth Brown Dunsire, daughter of John Dunsire and Janet Brown (#84], a quite distant connection except for the Auchterderran [Lochgelly] link. Elizabeth may therefore be the wife of a Dunsire, possibly David's brother James, about whom nothing is yet known, except a marriage in the Statutory Marriages Register Index of a James Dunsire to Elizabeth Reid in 1892. The marriage certificate confirms these guesses. As well as young David, Andrew and Annie, the household contains Agnes [8], David [7], Jessie [6], and Lizzie [4]. This second David and Lizzie may belong to Elizabeth rather than Jessie. [See under James b.1866.]
