From Scotland's People I have what might be, the Baptism of my husband's 4th GGF, John Anderson 1776-1849, Selkirk.
The record reads:
George Anderson Baker and Agnes Henderson his spouse had a child baptised - John on 5 March 1776 - Basil Henderson, Flesher in Selkirk and John ANDISON, Present Dean of the Gild in Selkirk.
I presume Basil Henderson is somehow related to Agnes (her father was John) and John ANDISON could be ANDERSON, but why they would spell it differently on the same record is beyond me. John ANDISON is noted as being 'Present Dean of the Gild in Selkirk'.
I'd be very interested in any information on any of the above named if you have access to relevant records you can access or point me in the direction of.
George and Agnes appear to have been married at St Cuthbert, Edinburgh:
7 July 1774
George Anderson, Baker Selkirk and Agnes Henderson Resident at (image is very clear and looks like) Burron Loch. Lawful daughter of John, Divisional Portioner, Selkirk.
ADDED: Witnesses James Aikman, Mason Portoburgh (presumably Portobello?) and John Elliot, Mason, Nicholson's Park.
No idea if where Agnes is 'Residing' is near Selkirk or Edinburgh.
I haven't yet started to research other siblings of John, or any deaths of those named above (other than John in 1890).
John married Jane (Jean) Dobson in 1804. The first child recorded I can find is George in 1815-1890. I can find 3 further girls but nothing prior to George. John was a Mason.
All help/direction appreciated and I'm happy to purchase records if they look relevant.
I'm sorry but I don't have the facility to put up a snip of the records at the moment.
Thanks in advance, Kit
