    1. Re: [MORAY] Parish Records for Botriphnie before 1810
    2. Hi The Parish map published by the Aberdeen & North East Scotland FHS shows that the Parish Records for Botriphnie date from 1693 through to 1854 for births and marriages but there are no death records. Hugh Wallis indicates in his website that the IGI Batches cover the same period but that there is a gap between 1693 and 1726 for births and 1692 and 1730 for marriages. I have not checked this but according to these sources you should be able to find information prior to 1810. However, please remember that these are the Parish Records maintained by the Established Church (The Church of Scotland) and many births and marriages are not recorded where the individuals were of a different denomination albeit they were supposed to inform the Parish.
