Resurrecting an old and related post.  Just wondering if anyone has any new or updated information to add to this.

So far I've traced my Scottish ancestry back to Robert Wilson and Isobel Laird with relative certainty.  I have the following information for Robert and Isobel -

Robert Wilson
Isobel Laird
  Birth: 28 Apr 1754, Falkirk, Stirlingshire
  Marriage: about 1777, Larbert, Stirlingshire
  Children: Peter, Girzel, William, Adam, Janet, Robert, Isobel, Robert, James, and
  Margaret

I did not list any birth information for Robert because I'm confused at this point in time as to who his parents were.  I've seen various references to James Wilson and Margaret Harrower, Patrick/Peter Wilson and Janet Gordon, and "Peter or Patrick" Wilson and Janet Gordon.  I have the following information on the three couples -

James Wilson
  Birth: about 1727, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Margaret Harrower
  Birth: about 1731, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
  Marriage: 28 May 1752, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire

Patrick/Peter Wilson
  Birth: about 1722, Cockpen, Midlothian
Janet Gordon
  Birth: 1 Jun 1722
  Baptism/Christening: 13 Jun 1722, Dalkeith, Midlothian
  Marriage: 15 Apr 1743, Lasswade, Midlothian

"Peter or Patrick" Wilson
  Birth: about 1731
  Baptism/Christening: 17 Feb 1731, Muiravonside, Stirlingshire
Janet Gordon
  Birth: about 1735, Muiravonside, Stirlingshire
  Marriage: about 1755, Muiravonside, Stirlingshire

Does anyone have any idea which of those three couples were Robert Wilson's parents?  I'm trying to trace my Scottish ancestry back as far as I can in an attempt to determine which clan the Wilson's that I'm related to are a part of.  I've most often seen Wilson mentioned as a sept to Clan Gunn, Clan Innes, and Clan MacFarlane.  Any help is appreciated!

Cheers, caliscot

Thanks very much for the reply, Seoras.  Unfortunately from the information that I've been able to find so far I've only seen one child listed for James Wilson and Margaret Harrower, their son Robert.  Sorry that my original post on their Children was unclear.  I have the following information for Robert -

Robert Wilson
  Born: about 1757, Larbert, Stirlingshire
  Christening: 8 May 1757, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Isobel Laird
  Born: 28 Apr 1754, Falkirk, Stirlingshire
  Married: about 1777, Larbert, Stirlingshire
  Children: Peter, Grizel, William, Adam, Isobel, Robert, James, and Margaret

Any additional information on James Wilson from my original post is appreciated!
