My 4 time Great Aunt Margret Syme was born on Anstruther, Fifeshire in 1794. She was conceived before her parents James Syme, a wright (skilled woodworker) and Helen Laidlaw were lawfully married. As the kirk tells it like it is the fact is faithfully recorded in the Parish Register.
Father James obviously hadn't been contrite enough. I've not yet added Margret to WikiTree so no link to her profile as yet.
