Back in 2001, I ordered LDS microfilm roll #0102964 Church of Scotland – Parish Church of Rutherglen – Parish Registers 1698 – 1854
… Baptisms:1698-1854; Marriages 1698-1758, 1820-1854;burials:1705-1794
(births & baptisms 1820 – 1854 were too hard to read … can't remember if they were too faded, horrible handwriting or what)
on it I found:baptisms (which often included birthdates):David, Mars, James & William (I was unable to make out much of William's).
I found no record in it of the marriage of Robert NIVEN & Agnes YUILL.They likely married in Barony or Cambuslang ... but I have never uncovered a record.I cannot recall whether I ever searched actual films for those areas.I wasnot able to borrow as many films as I would have liked.I think later Old Scottish Parochial registers were available right at the LDS FHC & that is how I came up with the births of Mars' older siblings.
Anyway … now most of them can be found at familysearch.org

apparently this David died and another son born later was named David since David GROVES gives 17 Jul 1804 as David's birth date.

there was a Mary NIVEN enumerated in the household one year, I'm guessing she was Agnes YUILL's granddau, rather than her dau.Agnes would've been about 59 in 1823.
