Notes for Margaret Ogilvie Brown
Her baptism transcipt by me from an image of the parish births register:
[ Leith South ]
“August and September 1790
“. . . .
“Broun
“Mr George Brun, Merchant in Leith, and Maergaret Balfour ’Spas’(?) D.N.
“Margaret born 10th bapd 20th April 1790 by the Revd Thomas Scott
“Minister of the Gospel Ballingry. Witnesses Mr Edward Broun and
“Mr William Balfour both Uncles to the said child.
“N.B. The above Childs name not being sooner notified to the

I wonder if Alexander Park was the father of Alexander Atherton Park who married George and Margaret’s much younger daughter Mary France?
