"David (Douglas), the second son, was bred a writer, whose 'male issue' is said, in the account in possession of the Tilwhilly family, to be 'extinct.' By male issue, however, it is possible that male descendants, bearing the name of Douglas, are intended, and that Margaret Douglas, wife of James Chalmers, printer and publisher in Aberdeen, might not thereby be excluded. Her father, David Douglas, of Panton Street, London, is understood to have been a descendant of the family ofTilwhilly, and he had no sons, while he had four daughters, Elizabeth, Katharine, Margaret and Charlotte. It is worthy of remark that the Banchory Parish Register records on 22 April, 1676 (1673 in fact, see above), the marriage of 'David Douglas and Margaret Reid, parishioners' (not otherwise designated), who in point of time might have been the grandparents of David Douglas of London."
