George and Margaret had 10 children - John b. 1813, Catherine b.1815, George b. 1817, William b. 1819, David b 1821, Alexander born 1823, Margaret b. 1825, James b 1827, Peter born 1830, Frances b. 1832.
From the details in the 1841 Census - they lived in Kincardine O'Neil - Aberdeenshire - Hindrom,
Household 1 - George - 56 Carpenter and Marget his wife 49 - with Catherine 24, Marget 15, Peter 10, Francis 8, William 20 - Carpenter/Journeyman.

From the details in the 1851 Census - Peter and his brother David were living in Monquith - the Mill of Monquith. It is situated south east of Kincardine O'Neil, north west of Stonehave and south west of Aberdeen and on the road between Maryculter and Netherley. It seems that the Duncan family might have owned the mill as comment from a descendent of a revious owner is "However the Mill of Monquich is now (1851) occupied by a Duncan family. I had hoped it might have been passed to a Thompson" How long Peter and David stopped there we do not know, but Peter married Rosanna Wilson in Ellon (just north of Aberdeen) on 07.10.1853, and by January 1855 were in Queensland Australia.
