Well, I found that.  My dad has been deep into our family tree for the last
couple years and I managed to find a reference in Ancestry to David
Malloch's death certificate (he's not related to me, but I was able to
search).

He was born in 1818, in Dundee, Angus to James Malloch (weaver, age 33),
and Jane (Watson) Malloch (age 31), both deceased by 1891.  David passed on
January 4th at what looks like "1/2 one pm", aged 73, of "carcinoma of
rectum and bronchial effusion" (double ouch) at his home in Croft Park,
Craigie, Perth.

So that answers the question of when William Malloch took over the firm
David Malloch and Son, until it was sold to Mathieson.

David's wife Sarah, who he married in 1845, passed on in 1893.

Best,
