Hi pinefamily

I don't know how long your subscription is on ArkivDigital but we will have to try to find evidence of him coming from Scotland here in Sweden.

I have though found a child birth for Thomas and Tabitha: Storkyrkoförsamlingen CIa1:5 (1688-1704) Bild 29 / sid 46

Hi Ian,
Thank you so much. My subscription for Arkivdigital is for a month, so plenty of research while on holidays. 

I found a family tree drawn up for Anna Maria Totties's probate in 1800 (Stockholms radhusratt 1:a avdelning F1A:341 [1800-1800] Bild 770/ sid 69).  She was a daughter of Thomas by his second wife, Christina Schonmann. It mentions Tabitha Person as his first wife, so I am assuming he married her in Sweden.

Hi
I have tried to find Thomas' first marriage without luck.

Here are some findings:

There are 2 indexes for the wills/inventories. These are for the Totties. You may already have these, but anyway:

Wow. A wonderful tree. Fascinating.
I think the reason behind this tree was that there must have been a lot of money to share out to the heirs.

Hi Ian,
Thanks for the references. A lot of reading for me!
Yes, that tree was drawn up to account for all of her heirs I think, although it is not complete. Carl Tottie, later the Swedish/Norwegian consul-general to Britain, was born in 1781 to Anders Tottie, yet is missing.
Thanks for all of your help on this and other threads. Have a safe and happy Xmas and New Year.

Thomas Tottie, born in Jedburgh was called in to Stockholm to marry a widow. Tabitha Pearson. Previously married to Jakob Gavin. Jakob and Tabitha probably married in St Catherine by the Towern in London 1675.
We also found a probably birth certificate in Jedburgh for Thomas. Pls note that these records are transcribed manually and there is a lot of errors.
Best regards
Wilhelm Tottie
