Personal Details
- James Thomson
  - Birth Notes
    - Can find no record of a James Thomson, son of James Thomson and Margaret Aitken, being born around 1720s in Uphall.
      
      However, it seems likely that a son would be named after the father, and James Thomson and Margaret Aitken are buried in same grave as an Archibald Thomson who died in 1825.
      
      Witness John Thomson at Archibald's christening could be Archibald's uncle.
  Isabell Robertson
  Isabell is no longer alive.
