However, as far back as we have been able to trace, the Phibbs' line has been quite staunchly protestant. For example, all of Matthew and ELizabeth's children were later married under the Church of Scotland. I am guessing, therefore, that it is likely that Matthew would also have been Protestant. Or do you know if it was common for the children of Catholics to later marry under Church of Scotland? I have not yet tried the Catholic archive for this reason.. Regards, Sarah
