Note: on (Glamis and Eassie & Nevay are neighboring parishes), and an eldest son named John. Also there were multiple Doig and Neave (Nevay) marriages indicating a close link between the families. As Robert was a shoemaker, there is also the possibility he is the son of George Doig, shoemaker in Glamis, and Euphem Ogilvie (see file GEOX1685). Also, David Doig (see file DAVE1750) may be a brother as they both had oldest sons named John and lived in Newtown, Glamis; this would suggest their father was named John. [If you are a male Doig descendant please join our DNA Project.] Robert was a shoemaker in Dundee and later a master shoemaker in Glamis. He also worked as a handloom weaver. He is listed in the 1801 Glamis list of military men as a "piker." Death presumed before 1834 as deaths were recorded in Glamis from that year, and Robert does not appear. A copy of births from a family Bible or similar paper, written in old script, lists Robert as married twice, with 12 children by Isabella Neave and 6 children by Jean Brymer.
