Notes about William Archibald

1. Ref: Scottish Coal Mining Ancestors, author Lindsay S. Reeks. Gateway Press, Baltimore 1986.
William, bp. 4 Jan. 1713, Largo p., res., Nether Largo, wit: Alexander Russel in Halton of Lundie, Wm. Service in Pilmoor, and many others [167]. Pr. of m. 10 Sep., m. 27 0ct. 1736. Wemyss p. (William of Scoonie p.), to Isobel Paterson, wit: James Paterson, John Henderson [166]. (also recorded in Scoonie p. with same pr. date) [169]. It seems likely that this m. refers to the ancestor, as their second son was named Andrew and their first . was named Janet, a variation of the naming custom. Their last known child, Andrew, was bp. 2 Feb. 1755, Scoonie p. [165].

2. Ref: Scottish Coal Mining Ancestors, author Lindsay S. Reeks. Gateway Press, Baltimore 1986.
John, bp. 4 Jan. 1730, Scoonie p., res., coalhill [165]. M. 24 Nov. 1752, Elspet Cairns of Wemyss p. Also recorded 25 Nov. 1752, Wemyss p., John Archibald, Colier in Durie coal hill, and Elspeth Cairns in Methil coal hill, wit: Alexander Cairns, Wm. Archibald [166].
It is believed that this m. relates to the ancestor, as his first son is named Andrew, and the witness, Wm. Archibald, at his m. was likely his brother, since Wm. was also of Scoonie p. when he m. in Wemyss p. in 1736. Also, John was a colier of Durie coal hill, Scoonie p., when he m., and this is the same locality where his father earlier was reported as a resident.
