Thanks for your post on the Gray's Hall thread. I'm replying on this thread as it seems more relevant to the topic.

I would be very interested in learning more about the family.

 " William "Cunnings" and Euphan Gourlay, who were married at Ceres in 1773. A bit more research turned up their children, Thomas(1774), David(1775), Agnes(1777), all registered as Cunnins or Cunnings, then John and Christian, twins (1781), Andrew(1783) and another John(1785), all registered as Cunningham!"

Re the twins: they were triplets! John born 2.1.1781, Euphemia and Christian the next day, and all three baptised on the 7 Jan.

My connection to the family comes through William's second marriage (Euphan Gourlay died 1787) to Grace (Grizzel) Kinnear (Kinniard) (1791) and their son Thomas (1794)

Happy to pass on any information.

Hi
Just joined Roots Chat - an excellent forum
I'm researching my family - Cunningham, Cunins - smiths in Hillteasses in the C18th.
Margow, I was wondering where I can find the reference to the c1718 purchase of the Teasses Estate by Rev Gray. I've found a sales advert for the Teasses Estate from 1785, after Miss Jean Gray's passing (The Caledonian Mercury 24 August 1785): it was bought by William Stark.
There are also accounts of Rev Gray's 'banking' activity in the Old and New Statistical Records for Dollar.
Thanks
Peter
