Kathrine Kinnament daughter of John Kinnament in "BROADFORD"?? was baptized on 30 Nov. 1732 according to OPR Births 295/10 20 Kingoldrum.
She had four siblings: Jannet 1720, Alexander 1726, Margaret 1727 and David 1730.
Can anyone tell me their mothers name please?

I can find a Broadmuir but not so far a Broadford in Kingoldrum, though there is a Broadford Bridge.

Hi Forfarian,
Under a magnifying glass it could read BROADFOORD /BROADSOORD/BROAD?OORD

There is a reference to a Broadford Bridge in the locality:

What was the name of Kathrine' 1st daughter, usually a clue at least to mother' forename?
Did any of the g/children have middle names which can often be a pointer to maiden names?

Hi Annie,
Good question about Kathrine's first daughter!
Kathrine was apparently married to Thomas Stormont (b 1713)in 1759 according to that ever reliable source Ancestry. Their family is listed as Isobel 14 Jan 1760, James 5 Oct 1761, David 23 May 1764, John 4 Aug 1766 and Alexander 17 March 1769. Isobel therefore appears as the only daughter.
They all come up on the OPR as children of Stormont/Kinnament/Stormonth/Kinninmonth apart from Isobel viz
14 Jan 1760 Isobel Stormonth OPR 295/10 33 Kingoldrum - Thomas Stormonth in Kinclune had a natural daughter baptized Isobel
No mention of a mother.
