Hi Niki,
Reading your query yesterday I realised I may be able to help you with your John BETHUNE.
For several years now I've been collecting up all Fife references to the name BETHUNE/BEATON ...and the many variants... in the hope that I can get my husband's family back beyond the mid-1700s, where I'm currently stuck!
I've been sorting people into their respective families where possible, but find the hard part is matching the right baptismal entry with the right marriage!If I have the names of any children, though, it's usually easy to slot people into their correct family of origin.
My reply now is for two reasons:
1to see if you have other information about your John's marriage or his family
2to see if I have info that could help you
If you'd like to let me know any other details you have, I'll check my records to see if I can add to what you already know. For many Bethune entries I can make at least one connection, and for most I can go back one or more generations.I'd be happy to exchange information with you.
Regards,
Norma
