** Note that 1852 was in the period when the FREE Church of Scotland was in the ascendency, and many baptisms therefore do not appear in the online indexes, which are primarily Church of Scotland. Many baptisms do not appear in the online indexes between 1843 and 1854. At 1855, with civil registration, all births are recorded.
