| Death |
1717 |
Place: Moneydie
- Notes:
-
John Imrie or Imbry died before 1 September 1717. The Kirk Session
records of Moneydie have various references to him. Unfortunately the
record previous to this (kept by him) were either in an incomplete state or
not to hand - there is some discussion of this in later records. The
minister and clerk (John Imrie) had both died in 1717, and their widows
could produce only partial records, they claimed. There is a suggestion
that the 1714 uprising ('the late unnatural rebellion') had caused loss of
earlier records.
