Eleven children in 18 years. \u00a0Large families were the norm for this era. \u00a0Unfortunately systematic record keeping was not. \u00a0For most of this family the only information available is birth dates and as are follows:- David 1813, Walter 1815, Jean 1817, Isabella 1819, John 1821, Robert 1825, Christina 1827, Archibald 1829-1841.<\/p>\n

The only other information I have been able to ascertain at this time is about:<\/p>\n

Janet (Jessie) b1832. \u00a0She married George G. Miller<\/strong> in Sydney N.S.W. in 1855, and<\/p>\n

James (II) who married Mary Hastie<\/a>, and<\/p>\n

Halbert James (I).<\/p>\n

The highlighted section of the Old Parish Records following the entry Oct 20, reads: “also John son of James Edgar in Park of Dumgree omitted in proper place Kirkpatrick\u00a0juxta March 23rd.(possibly 28th.) 1778″<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In keeping with the erratic record keeping here we have a notation<\/a> of Johns death on the Headstone and what appears to be an afterthought of his birth entry into the Old Parish Records. \u00a0Again there is a discrepancy in the noted records,\u00a0essentially the age on the headstone,\u00a0John would have been 89 when he passed away.<\/p>\n
