Title: Robina STEDMAN b 1721 Bo'Ness Unusual baptism record?
Post by: Duncan32 on Tuesday 17 November 20 16:03 GMT (UK)

I'm looking for more information on this person; her baptism record is slightly unusual, and states 'Robina Stedman daughter natural to Robert Stedman, as is alleged by the mother, Margaret Murray, born February 8th baptised July 8th [1721]. Child was presented by the mother.'

Does anyone know whether there are bastardy records for Bo'Ness, or maybe Kirk session records which may provide further information on Robina, her mother or her alleged father Robert Stedman.

Regards
Duncan
