PREFATORY    NOTE. 


The  present  volume  contains  an  alphabetical  digest  of  the  Register  of 
Marriages  of  the  Parish  of  Edinburgh  for  the  years  1 701-1750  inclusive, 
and  is  in  continuation  of  the  previous  volume  issued  by  the  Society 
covering  the  earlier  period  of  that  Register — from  1595  to  1700  — the 
portion  of  the  original  Register  now  dealt  with  being  contained  in  the 
latter  part  of  Volume  III.,  the  whole  of  Volumes  IV.  and  V.,  and  the  first 
half  of  Volume  VI.  Like  the  former,  this  volume  is  printed  by  the  kind 
permission  of  Sir  Stair  Agnew,  K.C.B.,  Registrar-General  and  Keeper  of 
the  Public  Records  of  Scotland. 

Shortly  before  1700  the  entries  in  the  Register  begin  to  expand  by 
giving  in  most  cases  not  only  the  names  of  the  bride  and  bridegroom, 
but  also  the  names  of  their  parents,  with  occasionally  other  particulars, 
including  dates  of  proclamation  and  marriage,  and  payments  of  sums  of 
money.  It  should  be  remembered  by  those  consulting  the  following 
Index  that  only  under  the  male  entries  is  the  full  information  contained 
in  the  Register  given,  and  those  consulting  it  under  female  names  must 
refer  to  the  corresponding  entry  under  the  bridegroom's  name  to  obtain 
the  details  given  in  the  Register. 

With  respect  to  the  dates  of  proclamation  and  marriage,  sometimes 
the  Register  only  gives  one,  in  which  case  it  is  probably  the  date  of 
booking  for  proclamation.  In  the  entry  of  the  female,  where  two  dates 
are  given,  only  one,  that  of  marriage,  has  been  inserted.  In  some  cases 
a  considerable  discrepancy  occurs  between  the  dates  of  proclamation  and 
marriage,  and  probably  it  is  the  latter  that  is  at  fault,  as  the  registrar 
seems  occasionally  to  have  inserted  wrong  months  and  years. 

In  or  about  1738  sums  of  money  begin  to  be  inserted  in  the  margin 
of  the  Register,  sometimes  in  Sterling  and  sometimes  in  Scots  reckoning, 
and  which  is  not  always  apparent.  The  amounts  vary,  so  that  it  is  not 
easy  to  determine  whether  the  amount  is  a  booking  fee  or  a  free-will 
donation  to  the  poor,  or  both.  That  a  fee  was  uplifted  may  be  inferred 
from  the  insertion  against  some  entries  of  the  word  ''gratis."  Sometimes 
also  note  is  made  of  the  re-delivery  to  parties  of  pledges  or  "  pawns  "  con- 
signed in  the  hands  of  the  Session-Clerk. 

To  economise  space,  use  has  been  made  of  the  following  abbreviations 
for    some    constantly   recurring    terms  : — s.  —  son  ;    d.  ■-=  daughter ;    m.  — 


iv  Prefatory  Note. 


married  ;  ser.  =  servant,  servitor  or  servitrix  ;  indw.  =  indweller ;  res.  = 
residenter  or  residing ;  p.  or  par.  =  parish  ;  L.  =  Leith  ;  N.  L.  p.  =  North 
Leith  parish  ;  S.  L.  p.  =  South  Leith  parish  \  N.  E.  p.  =  North-East  Kirk 
parish;  N.  N.  K.  p.  =  New  North  Kirk  parish;  S.  K.  p.  =  South  Kirk 
parish  ;  S.  E.  p.  =  South-East  Kirk  parish  ;  S.  S.  E.  p.  =  South  South-East 
Kirk  parish  ;  S.  W.  p.  =  South-^^'est  Kirk  parish  ;  W.  K.  p.  =  West  Kirk 
parish. 

In  entries  where  more  than  one  church  is  referred  to  (e.g.  N.  K. ; 
S.  K.  ;  N.  E.  ;  S.  S.  E.),  proclamation  was  probably  made  in  each  of 
them  ;  and  where  such  words  occur  as  "except  S.  E.  Kirk,"  proclamation 
was  probably  made  in  all  the  other  churches,  with  the  exception  of  those 
specified.  '       H.  P.
