John Laird of Canisbay
« on: Thursday 13 August 09 11:53 BST (UK) »
As I'm sure many have done before me I'm at a standstill in my researches ::)

I'm looking for any info on the parentage of John Laird (bn Canisbay circa 1700).
He was married to Elizabeth Geddes also born Canisbay (circa 1700).

I'd really appreciate any info at all.

Regards,
Martyn

As I have very scant details, simply his place & year of birth, he may very well have done just that but I can't say for sure :(
