Hi Dennis,
The only Archibald DONALDSON (not with a family) anywhere near the right age in Glasgow 1861 is a 40yr old married carter in the Duke St. Prison! He could of course have been in another County.

Not too sure on these next ones. It might be the James who married Mary Ann Malcolmson - his DC may confirm, or otherwise.
Can't see this family in Lanarkshire 1861.
