So far I have been able to trace my Scottish ancestry back to James Wilson. I have the following information -
James Wilson
Born: about 1727, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Margaret Harrower
Born: about 1731, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Married: 28 May 1752, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Children: Mary, James, Robert, Charles, Alexander, Elisabeth, and Charlotte
Does anyone have any additional information on James Wilson, his parents, or the family tree further back in time? Any help is appreciated!
Cheers, caliscot

Thanks very much for the reply, Seoras. Unfortunately from the information that I've been able to find so far I've only seen one child listed for James Wilson and Margaret Harrower, their son Robert. Sorry that my original post on their Children was unclear. I have the following information for Robert -
Robert Wilson
Born: about 1757, Larbert, Stirlingshire
Christening: 8 May 1757, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Isobel Laird
Born: 28 Apr 1754, Falkirk, Stirlingshire
Married: about 1777, Larbert, Stirlingshire
Children: Peter, Grizel, William, Adam, Isobel, Robert, James, and Margaret
Any additional information on James Wilson from my original post is appreciated!
Cheers, caliscot

Seoras, upon doing some further research, I think that I spoke too soon earlier and for that I apologize. I have recently been able to find the following children for James Wilson and Margaret Harrower - Mary, James, Robert, Charles, Alexander, Elisabeth, and Charlotte. I have the following information for the children -
Mary Willson
Baptism/Christening: 11 Feb 1753, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Parents: James Willson and Margarat Harrower
James Willson
Baptism/Christening: 19 Jul 1755, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Parents: James Willson and Margret Harrower
Robert Willson
Baptism/Christening: 08 May 1757, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Parents: James Willson and Margret Harrower
Charles Willson
Baptism/Christening: 15 Apr 1759, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Parents: James Willson and Margret Harrouer
Alexander Willson
Baptism/Christening: 19 Apr 1761, Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire
Parents: James Willson and Margret Harrower
Elisabeth Wilson

So, yes, I do now have those other children and more. I included the parents names in the above info to show the spelling differences. Any additional information on James Wilson (Willson?) is appreciated!
