Narrative

John Nimmo, husband of Isobel Johnston, may be the son (b. 1737) of Alexander Nimmo & Christian Buchan. There were no other births of John Nimmo registered in Muiravonside between 1720 and 1760. Furthermore, the probability of missing records is diminished by the fact that 9 children of Alexander Nimmo & Christian Buchan are recorded in Muiravonside between 1725 and 1748, i.e. in the period in question, there are comprehensive records in Muiravonside. On the other hand, if John is the son of Alexander Nimmo & Christian Buchan, he was aged thirty at the time of his marriage to Isobel Johnston. This would be unlikely unless he had been married before. Also, the naming of his children does not support the parentage of Alexander Nimmo & Christian Buchan.
