| 955 | The northern Picts were purely gaelic in race and languages. Both nations prided themselves on their dexcent from Cruithne, and broken up as they were into tribes and septs, they acknowledged a common origin but little in common. They each had a tribe and a great tribe and a Ri or King over provinces. Such was the kingdom of the Picts. The capital of the kingdom was settled in Scone and here their kings were crowned sitting on the block of red sandstone which now supports the Coronation Chair in Westminster Abbey. Christianity entered northern Scotland between the years 556 and 586 and came in the form of Columba. He crossed over from Ireland and took two years to reach the Picts. After some difficulty Columba converted Brude, son ofMalcolm, nominally at least, by having christianity declared the state religion. Moray owes it christianity to St Columba and it would seem reasonable that he become the Patron Saint of the Province, but this he never became. | Phimester, George Sutherland (I2968)

John was an eccentric - he was also the Millerof Highdown Hill, a poet, rural philosopher, and a smuggler. However,while it is likely that there is a relationship, this is not our John. | Olliver, John (I8199)

| 965 | There are no official records of Mary Ellen's birth or baptism. Thisis not unusual for some children christened at "Camden Park" duringthis period. Other researchers believe that some children werechristened by the Macarthur's (private) Minister and these recordshave not survived. On the other hand, because registration of birthswere not compulsory until 1856, the sole records available to theRegistrar of BD&M Records are the Church Registers. It is said thatvery few children, if any, were not christened/baptised when born to"Camden Park" residents. Also many christenings were performed byCircuit Ministers who travelled from place to place and many of thesehave either not survived or been found. Mary Ellen is recorded as adaughter of Benjamin and Frances in the official death certificates ofBenjamin & Frances. They are also listed as her parents on hermarriage certificate. On her marriage certificate, 29 November 1859,her age is given as 21 years. On her death certificate, 9 November1906, her age was 67 years. This points to her being born sometimebetween 9 November and 29 November 1838. | Weeks, Mary Ellen (I8980)

| 966 | There is a family story that John was a founder of the ScottishTailors' Union and was later unable to find work in Scotland, hencethe move to Newcastle upon Tyne.

He lost a leg in anaccident and used a wooden leg which he made himself. When his sonJohn married Anne Elliott Turnbull, Anne's father Robert provided a"real" artificial leg which had been left for repair at Robert's placeof work and never reclaimed. | MacWaters, John Clark (I6054)

Digitised. ancestry.com. https://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/collections/1901/ : 2010. Extractions of baptism, marriage, and burial information from parish registers in East Kent, England are available in this database. The information was compiled by Frank Watt Tyler who recorded genealogical data about families in the East Kent area. Parish records—primarily baptisms, marriages, and burials—provide the best source of vital record information in the centuries before civil registration. These records also include some tombstone inscriptions. The majority of these records come between the years 1538 and 1874, although the full range of records extend from the early 1500s to the late 1900s. A series of mandates in the sixteenth century required clergy to compile records of baptisms, marriages, and burials within each parish.
