Condition of Original Registers—
Index: For an index to these records, see the Scottish Church Records Index available on computers at the Family History Library and family history centers. The records may be indexed in the International Genealogical Index. Births: The fly leaf contains irregular entries 1781–1811. After the record for 1820 there are four pages of irregular entries dated 1770–1822. Mothers’ names are not recorded until 1770. Marriages: There are records of proclamations and marriages 1734–1776, which is intermixed with entries of Mortcloth Dues and other matters. The records have been very much wasted by dampness and want of care, and several of the leaves are entirely destroyed or lost. The records are blank 1776–1820, except for one entry in 1817, and one in 1819. There is not an entry for 1821. Deaths: Mortcloth Dues are inserted in the volume containing the marriages. The entries are few in number. Source: Key to the Parochial Registers of Scotland, by V. Ben Bloxham, pub. 1970. British Book 941 K23b.
