Notes

1    Information from Doreen Baxter in a posting on the Rattray mailing list at Ancestry.co.uk, 12 July 2005. No matches for marriage found on ScotlandsPeople 1770 - 1780

12 matches for baptism Charles Rattray baptised 1730 - 1760 - but only one in Edinburgh or south. Interestingly I did not find this in the Scottish Record Society transcription

2    Marriage entry for a Susan Ratery on the 6th of April 1799 gives her father as - Ratery, brewer in Gullon.
