Help with a Scottish O.P.R. Births record COMPLETED
« on: Sunday 14 September 14 06:50 BST (UK) »
The record is for the birth of William Crieghton 07/01/1667 from Inchture.
Our best guess goes something like this:

Jan 7  ??? Day William Crieghton Cordinar mAlossio pro ??? a son ???to be baptised called William

Any help much appreciated
