P.S. When searching on the ScotlandsPeople website, Use 'Ri' and 'surnames beginning with' so that you pick up both the Ritchie and Richie entries.
Or, dare I suggest, r*c*h*e to avoid getting Riachs, Richardsons, Rickards, Rileys, Rimmers, Riddels, Rigbys .....
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.
