Dr. David Livingstone's family...?

I'm trying to compile a family tree and trace my genealogy. I'm having a hard time finding all the names of David Livingstone's children (the famous Scottish missionary and explorer of Africa: he is my 5th great uncle) and any other family information on him. If anyone has any good information I would greatly appreciate it!

1. What a proud history you have there! David Livingstone was one of seven children. Two died in infancy. His two sisters, Janet and Agnes, never married. Wife Mary (daughter of Mary and Robert Moffat) died of malaria He had six children: 1) Robert reportedly died in the American Civil War, was killed and buried at Gettysburg 2) Agnes 3) Thomas 4) Elizabeth (who died two months after her birth) 5) William (nicknamed Zouga for the river along which he was born) 6) Anna Mary. The archives of David Livingstone are maintained by the Archives of the University of Glasgow (GUAS). The David Livingstone Centre in Blantyre, Scotland will assist you I am quite sure.
