While doing a look-up yesterday I ran into a most interesting batch of names in the IGI records which Thankfully ARE Sourced from the Parish registers of Thurso/Caitness, Scotland from 1647-1854. (Church of Scotland).
Batch # C110412
In this batch I found MUDIE's, MOODIE's, McHUISTON's, KARRE's, CHISOLME (spelled that way), JACKSON, SANDERSON,(might have later been shortened to just SANDERS), STEWART, BRUCE, CAMPBELL, DAVIDSON, DICK, MOWAT, GILLESPIE, KEITH etc.

In this Batch - #C110362 of Dunnet, Caithness, Scotland ~
MOODIE, SINCLAIR, BRUCE (married to a James MOODIE)

In this Batch - #M119571 of Greenock, Renfrew, Scotland ~

MOODY-GLASS marriage in 1728
MOODY-BURNS marriage in 1773
MOODY-FOSTER marriage in 1791
MOODIE-YOUNG marriage in 1754
MOODY-LANG marriage in 1786
MOODY-NEISMITH marriage in 1773
(All Sourced via the OPR records)

Switching over to Ayshire, Scotland on the Western side of the country which is the very nearest to Nor. Ireland I found in the following Batches -
Batch # M116002
MOODIE-McGREAN (shortened to just GREEN later?) Marriage in 1676 at Kirkmichael, Ayr, Scotland
ARMSTRONG-McGREAN 1780 at Kirkmichael (ALL Marriages are from KIRKMICHAEL, Ayrshire, Scotland unless otherwise specified)

McKARE-OR (sic- ORR) Nov. 1663
SINCLAIR-BALANTYNE- Mar 1792 (this one is later, but both names have been found linked to the MOODIE family of Orkney and they were related to the MOODIE family of Ayrshire and the Sinclair name appears in both my Nova Scotia MOODY family tree and the one in Darlington, SC so I thought these Sinclair's might be important to show that these families Were All Living in the Same Places)

KENNEDY-COOKE- 1639

DOAK-CRAWFORD - Sept. 1803 (this one is much later, but the DOAK name has cropped up in North Carolina associated with our Moody-McQuiston/McCuiston lines and in Scotland it alternately found spelled as DOIG which was intermarried with the MOODIE's/MUDIE's in Eastern Scotland (Forfar and Angus areas...so since this shows that this family was here in Ayrshire with what appears to be early members of those families our lines have intermarried with before going over to Nor. Ireland, I thought it might be important to add them here). This particular marriage was of a Hugh CRAWFORD and Margaret DOAK)

DOAK - DOAK 1769
DOOK (sic? Doak or Duke?) - DICK 1706
DOOK - SINCLAIR - 1718
DOOK - SINCLAIR - Apr. 1732
DOAK-DRENNAN 1779 (important to me because when I hired the Nor. Ireland group to do the MOODY/Moodie/Mudie research for me in 2006, the name of DRENNAN popped up associated with the Moody's of Co. L'derry so thought this might also be important)

DRAINEN (sic -Drennan) - KENNEDIE July 1655

MARTIN - ORE (sic - ORR...the ORR name is found intermarried with my family in Maine and they came over from Nor. Ireland)

MARTINE-KENNEDY- 1700
MARTIN-FULTOUN-1694
MAXWELL-KENNEDIE-1648
McALEXANDER - ORR 1654

Thomas MEANE- Jonet FULTOUN - Dec. 1666 (still in Kirkmichael, Ayr, Scotland)...I posted his name because the MEANS Massacre which took place in Maine that my family married into...the main character of that line was also a Thomas MEANS.

Thomas PATOUN - Issobell STEUART m. June 1655 (the Patoun/Patton/Patten various spellings are found in The Moodie Book linked to the early Moodie's and they are a sept of the Stewart clan so wanted to show this one as well since they might have been some of the folks who removed from the Western parts of Scotland to the eastern side or vice versa).
These are all Sourced from the Parish Registers of Kirkmichael 1636-1855 - Church of Scotland parish church of Kirkmichael, Ayrshire.
***************************************
This was just some of the names found amongst our Ydna family trees. As you can see from these, in both locations were found several of the names our McQUISTON's and MOODY's intermarried with from the eastern shores of Scotland to the western shores of Scotland and over to Nor. Ireland and then on to Nor. America.

I wanted to show these names from their earliest dates in Scotland as I believe some of These very folks are our Earliest (on record) ancestors.
