    1. Mary BLAIR of Stralachlan
    2. Bill Brown
    3. I am seeking help with the abobe lady. The OPRs record that "Lachlan Brown and Mary Blair both of this parish gave in their names to be proclaimed in order of marriage on the 17th Nov. and were married on the 19th Currt. 1793." The "Mutual Disposition and Settlement by Lachlan Brown and Mary Blair, Spouses" was entered into at Greenock, Renfrewshire, Scotland in 1820, That document lists Archibald McKELLAR, George PARK and Thomas BLAIR as neighbors at Gourock. The wording perhaps suggests that those people were more than neighbours and may have been related to either Mary or Lachlan, or from Stralachlan. The document also "appoints Duncan Blair Mariner in Gourock and Duncan Blair Shoemaker in Greenock ... to be Tutors and Curators for such of our said children as may be in a state of pupillarity or minority... " suggesting that the two Duncans were related to Mary. I wonder if anyone can help? Bill Brown Sydney
