Note:

Compared to other entries on the same page, this baptism entry is particulary scant, it does not even record the gender. The 1744 entry for this child's older sibiing is similar though the child is called 'Son'. The only other entry treated in this way in the 1746 page is the entry for Robert Fleming's child.






"Elspeth Gordon, my eldest lawful daughter"

"Elspeth Gordon : married William McAlaster, London, and got an annuity of £1 under her father's will."
