Marcie, I am sure that some more details of dates, places and other family members would greatly improve your chances of getting a useful reply.

Scotland's People lists 356 births/baptisms of Agnes Ki/yd(d)s before 1854 and 511 births after 1855, total 867 people of this name.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Capt James Kyd RN who died in 1793 in Elie,Fife, sold the family estates of Craigie (Dundee) and Woodhill. I am trying to find his parents.
His uncle was Thomas Kyd, Wine Merchant in Leith, father of Col. Robert Kyd(1745-1793).
I have found reference to several Testaments (including another Thomas Kyd 1673, son of James Kyd of Craigie , which I have read; William of Woodhill, James of Craigie 1662 and (presumably) siblings Elspet 1656, and William 1663), but have not been able to find the connection (i.e Capt Kyd's parents).
I wonder if anyone can help with any suggestions please. Could the David, born 1730 be a brother?


Andrew,

I have quite a lot of information on the Kyd/Kidd family of Craigie - what would you like to know and how do you connect?
