There is no such place as "Tedious"! However, it looks as if you are talking about Lillias Stewart, daughter of Charles Stewart, ground officer (i.e., essentially "estate manager") at Balblair in the Parish of Resolis and his wife Janet Hossack. Lillias was baptised on 19 December 1759.

No, the term is ground officer, not grounds officer.
