I believe that this Isabelle Provand could be the daughter of David Provan (Abt 1737, Fintry, Stirling) and Janet Cowan (Abt 1741, Fintry Stirling).The first girl was named after its maternal grandmother-Janet.And there is a child named David.This will take more research, but I feel that would be the most promising reseach.
Isabel Provan was born 2 Aug 1767 in Fintry, Stirling.Isabelle and John Jarvie's first girl would be named Janet after the maternal grandmother.If you could find the parents of David Provan and Janet Cowan, you could check the naming patterns of Isabelles children.
Incidently there are two sets of David Provan/Janet Cowan marriages at that time---one was from Kilsyth, Stirling.
