« on: Sunday 13 April 14 01:11 BST (UK)  »
Hi we have this entry in register of marriages Edinburgh . The man in q has 4 children born to this lady and registered before this date so is it a marriage or something else??

"Trotter, John, gardener to the Merchants Maiden Hospital, B., be r. of w. Katharen, dr. to James Craige, s. to John C., stabler, B., dispensing with omission to enter, by act of C. 11 Jan 1710 "

Do we have any idea eg is this an entry to Burgess ;D guild or  marrying someone after theve lived together, or giving the man inheritance rights over wifes possesions?? we are open to suggestions.
 Kind regards Ruth

Hi diddy ,im back. thank you for your info on John Trotter Dunino. That cleared up some puzzles.
 I wondered do you have any Mary Trotters Mi.. in Fife
I have a Mary trotter born 1806 Dunino and then nothing , its possible she married a John hunter but cant confirm.
I also have another Mary trotter who for two census lives in Leuchars 1841-5yo and1851 15yo  born1838 the daughter of a John Trotter and Flora Rogers. Do you have her in Leuchars on an MI?she was living with a family Donaldson at the saw mill Leuchars then i cant trace her.
 Thanks for any info you may have. 
 Kind regards
