David Peter Livingstone (aka Living, Levinge, and perhaps Livitch, Levidge, etc) was from Kinnettles in Angus, although a record of his baptism has not been found. He emigrated to Australia in 1838 on the Portland, after having married Lily Melrose in Canongate, Edinburgh, that same year. His family are thought to have been present in Glamis for many generations before the 19th century. A separate web page for this family exists at http://users.skynet.be/lancaster/Livingstone.htm (Added by Andrew Lancaster, Hasselt, Belgium.)

In general terms, on this page, put the name of your emigrant, dates of birth and death, dates of emigration, destination, family today, only the information known. Enclose the name of your Emigrant in square brackets ([[ and ]]) to create a new page for that family member and use underscores (_) instead of spaces when making new pages. You may add additional details to new pages created about your families if you wish, but try to keep this main page tidy by minimizing what you place here.
