Biography
Thomas was born or baptised on 21 January 1750 in Innerwick, Haddingtonshire, Scotland[1], the son of Thomas Runciman and Alison Grieve.
The Transcript of his Baptism reads:
1749 Jan Thomas Runciman in Thornhill (sp. illegible) & Alison Grieve his spouse had a son baptised named Thomas. Witnesses Richard Runciman & James Go----(illegible)
(assuming that Thomas is the son of Robert and Janet Sinclair, Richard might be Thomas' step-brother, I would also guess that Go--- might be Gourlay or similar, and that the place may be Thorntonloch? Two contenders, at least, in the right timeframes exist, Richard married toJean CLAWSON, Richard married to Jennet GOURLAY)
Thomas married Elspeth (Kemp) Runciman (~1751 - )
Their children were:
- Grizel Runciman (~1779 - )
- Marion Runciman (~1781 - >1810)
- Ann (Runciman) Peffers (1783 - 1828)
- Alison Runciman (~1785 - )
