“During the seventeenth century, the Scottish
Covenanters were fighting for their religious freedoms against the King in London . Many were
martyred for their cause and monuments to those who died can be found in many
areas of Scotland .
If you are looking for specific Covenanting
ancestors, the ‘Scottish Covenanter Genealogical Index’ by Isabelle McCall
MacLean (2007) may be of interest. There is also the ‘Register of the Rev. John
MacMillan: Being a Record of Marriages and Baptisms Solemnised by him among the
Cameronian Societies’, edited by Rev. Henry Paton (1908). This latter title is
a record of the marriages and baptisms of Covenanters during the period
1706-1751.”
