Angus (Forfarshire) / Re: KIDD,DAVID c1730 Angus,Scot.
« on: Wednesday 04 November 15 10:55 GMT (UK)  »
Capt James Kyd RN who died in 1793 in Elie,Fife, sold the family estates of Craigie (Dundee) and Woodhill. I am trying to find his parents.
His uncle was Thomas Kyd, Wine Merchant in Leith, father of Col. Robert Kyd(1745-1793).
I have found reference to several Testaments (including another Thomas Kyd 1673, son of James Kyd of Craigie , which I have read; William of Woodhill, James of Craigie 1662 and (presumably) siblings Elspet 1656, and William 1663), but have not been able to find the connection (i.e Capt Kyd's parents).
I wonder if anyone can help with any suggestions please. Could the David, born 1730 be a brother?


Andrew,

I have quite a lot of information on the Kyd/Kidd family of Craigie - what would you like to know and how do you connect?
