Parish Registers - SCOTT - Baptism

[melonsmum]

Hello Monica,

Thanks for the encouragement.  My 2nd cousin connects directly to Thomas Beattie Scott.  His father is Thomas's eldest son.  Unfortunate that he doesn't know very much.  (I think that he probably knows a lot more than he realises,) but I have found it hard to keep him on track when asking questions of him.

I am already searching for another likely candidate.  I found a family in Partick who also connect to Ballymena, Co. Antrim so maybe that is more likely.  The father of this Thomas was a sawyer so I wonder did he progress to Manager by 1892?  I suppose that I have to look at all eventualities.

If Thomas was born in Scotland, his birth should show.

I hope your cousin stays on track for this round of questioning    I suppose you've done the rounds with all living family members to see whether anyone may still hold some family papers/bible/correspondence etc.

Let us know how you get on.

Monica
