David Kirkcaldy's Birthplace HELP
« on: Thursday 15 March 07 15:03 GMT (UK) »
Hi all
Trying to trace birthplace of David Kirkcaldy b. approx.1807.  His parents were Robert Kirkcaldy and Jean Taylor.  He was married to Euphemia Walton b. 1811 in Kilmany.  According to the 1851 census, Starrlaw, Kilmany, his birthplace is given as Balmerino, but can find no trace of his birth on ScotlandsPeople. 
Found a few Kirkcaldys in Balmerino, but not this David.  Can anyone throw any light on this, I would be really grateful Thanks.

Hi Elizabeth.
David is a complete puzzle, at least I know when and where he was married now.  Thanks for that.

26 Jun 1803, Dundee, Angus
02 Aug 1808, Cupar, Fife

My humble apologies  Elizabeth   :-[ :-[ :-[     11.08 pm isn't the best time to be searching, especially after a hard day !!
There is only one David Kirkcaldy born between 1800 and 1810, and he was born 24 May 1808, Dundee, Angus.

Hi Bervonian,

Sorry I can't find the birth record of David Kirkcaldy you found in Dundee 24 May 1808, either on Scotland People.

So sorry about this.

Elizabeth :'(

Hi Jenc,

I found that birth on IGI too for David Kirkcaldy but as it was the wrong parents names I thought it couldn't be the correct birth!!!
