Looking for any information possible about William Irvine from Kincardineshire. Looking to figure out who his parents were so I can continue my family tree. Possible names for his parents are John Irvine and Christian Smith, but that might be incorrect. im going on the assumption they arent right as i've found no further information about them.

This probably won't really help, but I wonder if Shawensha could be a mistranscription of Shannaburn?

I note the children’s baptisms on SP except George, it seem quite a gap between the first two?

Seems odd that they would have two children born in different parishes in the same year?

Is it one of these out of district couples you were considering?

I believe David and Allan emigrated to Australia.
James married Susan Jane Stronner 0n 31 Dec 1908 in Montrose

Susanna Taylor Dunn Officer Irvine
David Wallace Irvine (my Father)
John Stronner Irvine

John and James both died in the great flu epidemic of 1918, aged 4 and 2.
David married Martha Begg Gove in 1943, and had a little Girl who was born extremely premature and only lived 2 or 3 days. James (me!) was born in 1947
I don't know if this fits in with any of your Irvines or not. Most of them seem to be from the Brechin/Montrose area, so a bit further south than your ones
