Do you know whether the records were checked against the tombstones themselves where they existed? The church records for my Gr Grandfather didn't include his name or his wife's but when I went to the graveyard it was clearly there. Somewhere I think I remember reading that records were made of graveyards where records didn't any more exist or never had.

The LDS microfilmed all of the church records in the British Isles years ago. Of course, church records are only as accurate as the person who wrote the entries....many of them were illiterate, so spellings of names can be wrong.....just like in early U.S. They spelled many names phontically. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Janet Hallahan" <jhallahan@comcast.net> To: <CLANBOYD-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, July 25, 2005 6:30 AM Subject: RE: [Boyd] Kilmarnock graveyards? > Interesting!

To see just what the Family History Library in Salt Lake City has....go to familysearch.org....then click where it says: Search the Family History Library Catalog....then click on PLACE search....enter in the blanks Kilmarnock then Scotland...press search...when Kilmarnock, Ayr, Scotland comes up...click on that....that will then give you a list of what they have microfilmed from that area. You can then click on the one that interests you. Whenever you see VIEW FILM NOTES in the upper right hand corner, click on that and it will tell you what is on that microfilm or microfiche. I looked at the entry and it said Church of Scotland.

From available bits and pieces, apparently Andrew Boyd of Frederick was a "Reformed Church" member (altho he gave land to several other congregations for their churches, either out of generosity or just hedging his bets) WOuld that have been an option in Scotland in 1745?

Janet - some more info - don't know if it helps you? Kilmarnock, St Andrew's Free Church began at the Disruption, when the minister of an existing quoad sacra church and most of his congregation adhered to the Free Church. A church was built in 1844 (reconstructed, 1886). It passed successively to the United Free Church and the Church of Scotland, in the latter case as Kilmarnock St Andrew's North, which was in the presbytery of Irvine and Kilmarnock and the synod of Ayr.

Janet - some more info - don't know if it helps you? Kilmarnock, St Andrew's Free Church began at the Disruption, when the minister of an existing quoad sacra church and most of his congregation adhered to the Free Church. A church was built in 1844 (reconstructed, 1886). It passed successively to the United Free Church and the Church of Scotland, in the latter case as Kilmarnock St Andrew's North, which was in the presbytery of Irvine and Kilmarnock and the synod of Ayr. It united with Kilmarnock Howard as Kilmarnock Howard St Andrew's in 1984.

Found this on the Internet - any help? "St Andrew's Parish Church, Kilmarnock, was built as a chapel of ease for the mill-workers in its vicinity in 1841. In the wake of the 1843 Disruption, which led to the formation of the Free Church of Scotland, they revolted and joined the Free Church in 1844 and formed a new congregation called Free St Andrew's in Faulds Street, Kilmarnock, depleting what was still the relatively new congregation of St Andrew's Parish Church. At the 1929 union of churches, Free St Andrew's became part of the Church of Scotland and became known as St Andrew's North Church."

here is the web site for the LDS Genealogical library catalog. http://www.familysearch.org/ click on library then on family history catalog. You can look at places or names. Then you will have to find a local family history library, which should be close to you and order in the film or fiche.
