Out of curiosity following an enquiry about Minnigaff, I went to www.genuki.org.uk/index.html for background information on the area. I was amazed to discover on the site, a list of all the residents over the age of 12, together with their residences, for Wigtonshire and Minnigaff in the year 1684.
This list was drawn up by the Episcopalians, prior to the creation of the Church of Scotland in 1690.
What a godsend [ LOL !] for anyone researching for their ancestors in this area.
