Orr family Lochwinnoch
« on: Wednesday 25 December 13 22:11 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone have any info about the Orrs of Millbank. An ancestor of mine was Jean, daughter of Robert Orr of Millbank, Lochwinnoch (who was imprisoned at Stirling Castle 1684-5 for refusing to take the "Test"). I would like to find out about his ancestry.

I have many in my line but much later. However, I do have this link I saved, its accuracy is uncertain.

Many thanks Don for responding although I had already seen that link. The trouble is that almost everyone in Lochwinnoch seems to have been called Orr. I am hoping sometime to get to see Andrew Crawford's "Cairn of Lochwinnoch" which might help to sort some of them out.
