Gladsmuir / Athelstaneford - Andrew Arthur / Mary Barclay
« on: Monday 29 March 10 11:28 BST (UK) »
I am plodding through a microfilm of the OPR for  Corstorphine  at my local LDS FHS.

Andrew Arthur and Mary Barclay have several children in Corstorphine but also seem to have flitted between there and Gladsmuir and Athelstaneford.


Helen 12/1/1792 Gladsmuir
Isobel 1/9/1793 Corstorphine
Thomas 22/10/1795 Corstorphine
Marion 1797 Athelstaneford
Robert 28/7/1800 Corstorphine
Crawford 17/2/1804 Corstorphine

Familysearch has Andrew born abt 1770, Mary born abt 1772 and their marriage abt 1790, all in Gladsmuir. However, this information is in the form of Pedigree Resource Files and I cannot back this up with any IGI transcriptions. Scotlandspeople can confirm the birth of Helen  at Gladsmuir and describes Arthur as a Labourer in Narclaw? 

Can anyone confirm that Andrew and Mary really were born and married in Gladsmuir.
