I see that you are interested in the Bethune/Beaton line on the Heights. My Gt x 4 grandfather James Wemyss (1777-c.1854) married Helen Bethune (a.k.a. Alice/Elsie Beaton) (1788-c.1850). Any connection to you?

I'm coming a little late to this party but just found the reference to Wemyss/Bethune after a Google search! My Wemyss line comes from Fodderty and although I cannot at present prove a direct link to your 4xggrandfather, Scraggi, all the Wemysses in that area seem to me to be related to each other, including the ones who like mine strayed over the parish line into Dingwall. Having been there once or twice myself it looks relatively easy to do!
I'd be happy to compare notes with you.
