Hi Beans  :)

The children you have are as showing on the OPRs. Not sure whether the dates below refer to births or christenings.  Apart from daughter Christian, all other show Clackmannan:

1   20/05/1785   MCFARLANE   CHRISTIAN  at Stirling   /STIRLING
2   03/09/1786   MCFARLINE   JOHN   
3   09/03/1788   MCFARLINE   -----   Female
4   15/08/1791   MCFARLINE   DANIEL   
5   08/09/1793   MCFARLINE   BRUCE   

Regards.

Monica

I am trying to trace my g.g.grandfather James McFarlane born in Kirkclaldy around 1800. Could there be a connection, his father, I believe was called David.    Dannielle
