Dear list has anyone heard of Scotchchurch - Nc in South Shields? Our ancestor Phillis THOROWELL was baptised there in 1797 but I can not find out any information on Scotchchurch. I was wondering if anyone knows whether: Scotchchurch is another term for Presbyterian? Nc stands for non-conformist? Do you have to be of Scottish descent to be baptised in a Scotch Church? Phillis did marry a Scottish man Allen LONGMOOR but at St Hilda's which is an Anglican Church. Her parents were married at Jarrow. Hoping that someone can help solve this mystery Claire Longmoor Nottingham, UK _________________________________________________________________ Tired of 56k?
