  General Notes:

(at Carrington in 1660)

"James Kilpatrick, son and heir of James K. or Patrick, portioner, of Byres, Kilwinning (Ayr Sas., iii., 242); recommended by George, Lord Ramsay, 1st Jan. 1660, 'as a domestick in his own house'; called 15th and ord. 28th June 1660. Deprived by Act of Parliament 11th June, and of Privy Council 1st Oct.1662, and went to Ireland; was min. again in 1688."

(at Carrington again in 1660)

"James Kilpatrick, already mentioned. At the Provincial Meeting, 2nd Nov. 1687, David Williamson was appointed to send the letter of the General Meeting requesting K.'s return from Ireland; on the invitation of the parishioners he returned in June, brought his family in Nov., and was allowed to preach and exercise the other duties of the ministry, by the Committee of Estates 10th May 1689, without prejudice to the patron's right of patronage; restored by Act of Parliament 25th April 1690; member of Assemblies 1690, 1692; died 4th July 1696. He marr. 22nd Dec. 1691, Helen Kerr, widow of George Johnston, min. of Newbattle, and had issue Christian (marr., as his second wife, Sir John Clerk of Penicuik, Bart.). His portrait is still extant at Penicuik. [Edin. Reg. (Marr.; Acts Parl., ix.]"

from Fasti Ecclesiae

Note:

The phrasing in the second quotation above from Fasti Ecclesiae appears to suggest that James Kilpatrick's daughter, Christian Kilpatrick, was the daughter of Helen Kerr. Since Christian married John Clerk in 1692 this was clearly not so.
