Biography

She was christened on 22/4/1753 as Anstruther, Easter, Fife. Christening record has her date of birth and lists her parents as Robert Trail and Janet Duff.

Janet married John More / Moir on 18 November 1787 in Anstruther Easter, Fife, Scotland.[1]

Research Notes

Similar Birth / Baptism sources with different parents. Neither has the birth location mentioned in the profile. Both have the mentioned Birth date, one as Birth date, one as baptism date.

  • Janet was born 16 Apr 1753, baptized 22 Apr 1753 in Anstruther Easter, Fife, Scotland. Her parents were Robert Trail and Janet Duff. [2]
  • Janet was born 22 Apr 1753, baptized 29 Apr 1753 in Dysart, Fife, Scotland. Her parents were John Trail and Agnes Johnston. [3]

Wikitree profile had her date of death as 8/9/1788 and place as St Fergus, Aberdeenshire but this can't be correct as all her children were born after that date.

Trail-600 and Trail-485 appear to represent the same person because: The son John Moir has been merged together - the dates also are the same including the marriage.
