Fife / Re: James Sturrock born in Cupar/Coupar, Fife, Scotland 1821

Dear Tycho,
Have just been reading through your message and trying to check out what I've found today. I looked at the original register of the Ceres Associate Church baptismal records and William lawful son to John Sturrock and Margaret Archbald was baptised February 18 1797. They had an older son John born abt 11 Nov 1786 whose baptism is not recorded in these records. Next Janet born 16 Jan 1789 and baptised 18th, then James born 13 May 1791 and baptised 14th, then Agnes baptised Oct 6th 1793, then William, and finally Peter born 21 Nov 1800 and baptised 26th (he was baptised by Rev Mr Peter Taylor, and he was named after the minister).
The connection is confirmed I think by the census information for Edinburgh 1851 with John Sturrock and his mother Isabel, both born Cupar, then the will information that Isabel Hutchison was married to William Sturrock who died in 1833. She then appears in the 1861 census with son, John, and nephews from St Andrews Peter and Andrew Sturrock, who were I believe two of Peter Sturrock and Alicia Dalgleish's sons.
John Sturrock, the eldest son of John Sturrock and Mary (or Margaret) Archibald, remained in Ceres and was a linen handloom weaver. He married Anne Archibald, who was likely the daughter of James Archibald and Anna Bone or Bayne. Ann Archibald was also baptised at Ceres Associate Church on 30 Dec 1787. John and Anne Sturrock had at least two sons, John born abt 1819 and Peter abt 1821.
Janet Sturrock (b1789) married John Bernard in Edinburgh in 1811.
James Sturrock (1791) only know that he erected the gravestone to his parents in Ceres and had been in India.
Agnes Sturrock (1793) no info.
*William Sturrock - your line I believe.
Peter Sturrock (1800-1878) hairdresser and perfumer St Andrews married Alice (Alicia) Dalgleish (b Dundee) and had a large family including Peter (c1831) and Andrew (c1842) whose dates fit in with the two on the 1861 Edinburgh Census.
I haven't looked at any of the wills on Scotlands People.
I hope you can make this out.
