I was wondering if anyone could help me with understanding baptism records. My GGGGgrandfather James Yule and my GGGGgrandmother Anne Peterkin had twin boys baptised in Nairn in 1769: my GGGgrandfather John Yule and GGGGuncle Lewis Yule The baptism record reads : "Nairn August 29th 1796. James Yule in town and Anne Peterkin his wife had twins baptised, the oldest named John witnessed John McIntosh Millerwright, John Rose Wright, John Rhind Wheelerwright, John Petrekin in Moy, Anne McIntosh and James Sheppherd all in town. The youngest called Lewis after Lewis Rose of Culmeny and Lewis Grant of Grange-green Esquires. Witnessed Elizabeth Petrickin in Culmeny and Elspet Rose in Nairn" Is there any significance in Lewis being named after the two esquires? At first I thought Elizabeth Petrickin in Culmeny may have been married to Lewis Rose and that there was a connection through marriage to Anne Peterkin but it is clear that Lewis Rose never married. I would like to know if the naming of Lewis after Lewis Rose and Lewis Grant indicates any kind of relationship between the people and would appreciate comments from anyone with experience of reading these records. Many thanks, Brian
