General Notes:
In 1656, the baptismal register of Kilsyth parish Stirlingshire records the baptism of Alexander Steine, son to "Jon Steine in Lenzie":
"STEINE ALEXANDER JOHN STEINE/ M 27/04/1656 483/10 248 Kilsyth"
In the text of the baptismal record it says that a "testimoniall" was provided by "Jon Gartschoir ane elder", and that Patrick Gartschoir and Alexander Gartschoir witnessed the baptism.
"About the end of the reign of King Charles I. the estate was in possession of Captain Patrick Gartshore of that Ilk, who was reckoned a 'gentleman of honour and a brave soldier.' He is likely to have been the 'Laird of Gartshore' who appears in the records of Parliament as a Commissioner on Loans and Taxes, 1643; on the Committee of War, 1647-48; and as Member of Parliament for Dumbartonshire, 1685-86 (See Note below).
When Patrick Gartshore died without issue the succession devolved on his immediate younger brother James Gartshore, D.D., Parson of Cardross."
