Seasons Greetings,
I've been trying to find some further information about Agnes Glendinning
who was transported from Leith, Scotland to Barbados in 1663, aboard the
"Mary". She was originally from Edinburgh. Does anyone know anything further
about her? What happened to her in Barbados, did she marry, immigrate to
America?
The two references I have for her are from:
The Original Scots Colonists of Early America 1612-1783. David Dobson
(Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1989), 107.
"2222. Glendinning, Agnes, res. Edinburgh, tr. 8 May 1663, fr. Leith to
Barbados, in Mary. (EBR.186.13.4)" EBR = Edinburgh Burgh Records.
The Scottish Surnames of Colonial America. David Dobson (Baltimore, MD:
Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 2003), 51.
Has anyone checked the Edinburgh Records to find out why she was
transported?
I'm thinking that she might be the daughter of Williame GLENDUNNING and
Helene MANUEL. The following Scotlandspeople.gov.uk baptisms of their
children fit nicely, making Agnes about 24 years old when she was
transported:

I was not able to locate a marriage of William and Helene. Has anyone been
working on this family?
Any information would be much appreciated. Lee Dickson
