I was born in Rosyth, my Father in Cowdenbeath, before that was Alloa/Clackmannan and before that Inveresk/Lothian. Where I am stuck is in Inveresk where John Hunter (the younger)was born October 1668. His Father John (the elder) married Marion Young we presume in Inveresk, but there is no record of his marraige. If we presume him to be about 22 when he married then his birth would be in the region of 1645. Most of the family in Inveresk were quarry workers.
Not much jacobitedreamer, I hope you have better luck than I've had.
Saor Alba.
Hm. Maybe Marhar can help with the names and birth records that he has at hand. I will however try to find something in my books. What you could do is to try and contact the churches of Inveresk and ask them if they have any records on marriages/baptisms etc. for that era.

Oh, and by the way, the jacobitedreamer is proud to act like a gentleman - but actually, she's female...
