Working back, as asked at the outset:

Andrew Clark bp.23/4/1775 Forgan, Fife, son of John Clark and Nicolace Higgie (married 3/11/1759 Leuchars, Fife).  (Andrew died 7/5/1864 Leuchars, widower of Mary Simpson - informant was grandson James Clark BUT father incorrectly quoted as Andrew instead of John - mother is correct). Siblings Elspeth 1760, John 1762, Thomas 1764, Katharine 1767, Margaret 176, Robert 1773 - all baptised Leuchars.

Andrew Clark married Mary Simpson 21/11/1795 Logie, Fife - children John 1796 Leuchars, Jean 1802 Leuchars, Elspeth 1800 Leuchars, James 1802 Leuchars, Betty 1804 Leuchars, Mary 1806 Logie, Andrew 1809 Leuchars, Margaret ca.1813 Leuchars.

You can get full birth/baptism dates on familysearch.
