"December 26th 1755
Alexander Gordon in Bawhilloch had a Daughter by his wife Margaret Gordon baptized named Elizabeth wirtnesses John Gordon in Craigencat & Pat. Gordon in Kirktown of Cabrach"

Note:

'Craigencat' is found elsewhere in Scotland. This instance is almost certainly referring to a farm in Cabrach parish. Not only John Gordon was resident there. Compare this from a rootschat conversation:


"Adam Gordon and Jean Marishall were both "in this parish" when they married in 1755 at Cabrach. Their 4 children were all born at Oldtown of Cabrach.
Frances (son) bpt. 5th Aug 1756 - wit John Gordon in Craigencat, Adam Gordon in Piketillom.
