The Lasswade parish register shows twin daughters, Margret and Janet born to "Dand Wilson the younger" in 1678. This means that Dand Wilson's father was Dand Wilson senior. Dand Wilson is also shown as a witness at the birth of Dand Wilson's daughter Jean in 1675, along with William Baird. The IGI extracts Dand Wilson as David Wilson, but the name is consistently Dand or Daand through several generations.
