I only seem to be able to access half the entry.  It would be easier to read if we have the whole'
record page. ;)Sandra

This is what I make of it.

Thursday 16th March 1699

James Tweedie worker and Elizabeth Borthwick a daughter named Marie

W. Robert Gray of Rickarton(?) Alexander Borthwick of Hallanhill (?) John Gorvan merchant
William Jameson Glover

Presumably these four men were godparents or sponsors.  I do not know what N.K. means

There is a thing to scroll across to see all the image.

Thanks for the help!

NK is North Kirk (see http://www.ancestor.abel.co.uk/inv/marrc.html ).

Could William Jameson's occupation be glazier?

I think it's Fallow Hill.

N.K. could be the minister's initials.

I did think James' profession looked like 'writer' initially, but it could be worker???

You could be right. I can't see o in it, and this scribe doesn't appear to dot his i.
