[kiwikate]

No other info on the OPR just they appear before the Sepion and acknowledge their irregular marriage  Jean was born Feb27th 1769 baptised March 5th 1769 witness grandfather John Sandilands she was born Pencaitland daughter of William Sandilands and Jean Pittiloe cant seem to find John Hamiltons birth Thanks Kate

they appear before the Sepion

This is Session not Sepion - in old handwriting they often used the 'long s' which makes the combination 'ss' look a bit like a 'p'.

This is how the name is transcribed on SP, hence why I did not find it.
SANDLANDS JEAN   WILLIAM SANDLANDS/JEAN PITTILLOE    5/03/1769   Pencaitland

HAMILTON   JOHN   JOHN HAMILTON/JEAN SANDILANDS    06/10/1799   Cranston

Another child has appeared, above, which did not show up earlier.
This would lead me to believe John seniors father was likely to be John and mother Isabel if they followed the Scottish naming pattern. One possibility below.

HAMILTON   JOHN     JOHN HAMILTON/ISABEL COCKBURN 11/06/1769   Inveresk and Musselburgh

When searching on SP use wildcards

s*nd*l*nd* will find all variants of Sandilands and p*t*l* will find all variants of Patullo/Pittilloe.

I have an interest in the Patullo line. Mine are from Perthshire and Edinburgh is not far away. Any expansion on your Pittiloe line?
