Hi Debra and welcome to RootsChat :)
Scotlands People lists a possible baptism/birth of a Christian Kinnear on 2 June 1799 at Wemyss Fife with parents Thomas Kinnear and Margaret Chambers

Thank you Kay, I've checked into this and sadly those are not her parents.

Hi Debra
These searches can be so hard, can't they :-\ Why don't you think that the couple that Kay mentions could be Christian Kinnaird's parents? Have you got more info that could help?

Added: Debra, have seen your and others post on son Charles Nicol and extensive documentation and see how well researched this all is. Just curious therefore as to why you have dismissed the possible Kinnaird parents, that is all...

Hi Monica
I was in touch with a member on Genes Reunited, who also had a Christian Kinnear in his family tree, born around the same time as mine. He has proof that Thomas Kinnear and Margaret Chambers are her parent's. Thomas Kinnear and Lucretia Anderson might be my Christian's parents, but i can't find a birth or death registration for her. This is the only Thomas Kinnear i could find from Kinloch Fife.
I have hit quite a few brick walls in my tree.
