JAMES GUTHRIE – of Nether Drummochie, Largo, Fife, Scotland
Born about 1650s-1670s (Rough Estimate), presumably in Fife, Scotland
Died after 1692 presumably in Fife, Scotland
Spouse: Elizabeth Smyth m. 14 October 1696 in Largo, Fife, Scotland
Children: 4 +
Jannet (1692), Hellen (1694), Margaret (1699), James (1703)

James Guthrie/Elizabeth Smyth > Janet Guthrie/George Greig > Christian Grieg/William Gilchrist > George Gilchrist/Christian Honeyman > David Gilchrist/Mary Ellen Skinner > George Gilchrist/Isabella Campbell (GGP)

Note: The participant’s ancestor is daughter Jannet Guthrie whose baptism records lists her father as James Guthrie in Nether Drummochie. There are 4 records that can be identified as belonging to this James. However, in 1702, a second man named James Guthrie, also in Nether Drummochie, married a Margaret Guthrie. They had at least 1 child, Andrew, in 1703. Children born to a James Guthrie of Nether Drummochie after that date could potentially belong to either James Guthrie/Elizabeth Smyth or to James Guthrie/Margaret Guthrie. The overlapping years of marriage and childbirths indicate this is not a case of 1 man and 2 successive wives. There is also another man by the name of James Guthrie whose children were born in approximate years designated in the records as James Guthrie of Nether Largo.

JAMES GUTHRIE – of Craighead, Cullen, Banff, Scotland
Born about 1700 in Scotland (broad range est. 1680-1700)

JAMES GUTHRIE – of Scotland & Ireland who died at Sea
Born before 1715, reportedly in Scotland
Died at Sea in 1774 while making the journey to America
Spouse: Elizabeth Dunlap (d.1774 at Sea)
Children: 6
Mary (1762IRE), Adam (1762IRE), Jennie (17??), Elizabeth ‘Betsey’ (17??), Margaret (17??), Unidentified Daughter (17??)

Note: James and Elizabeth Dunlap Guthrie died on the passage to America with their 5 daughters. Their only son Adam had remained in Ireland as the heir to his Uncle John Guthrie. Tragedy struck when James and Elizabeth fell ill and died on the voyage, after which Adam Guthrie made the journey to America.

Mistaken Identity: This couple is frequently and erroneously confused in online trees with my ancestors from GFG2A-Branch A: James Guthrie 1720IRE-1800/1NC & Elizabeth (MNU) who’s children were James, Mary, Ann, Robert, Margaret, Martha, Jean, and Elizabeth of Ireland, Maryland, and Orange County, NC. GFG2A-Branch A’s Elizabeth’s maiden name is not known.

James Guthrie/Agnes Couperthwaite > William Guthrie/Agnes Hewatson (GGP)
Note: Haplogroup R-M269. The project needs another direct male Guthrie descendant to verify findings, pinpoint timeline for mismatch, and identify the original Guthrie Family Group. This individual has autosomal matches to all kits below. Common ancestors to all are William Guthrie/Agnes Hewatson, which suggests the genetic mismatch originated no later than that generation.

Notes: Online trees link John Guthrie to a 1850 census for Burleson, TX, which lists a John Guthrie born in 1830 AL, his parents John and Mary, and siblings. This is an error. That record belongs to the family of John Franklin Guthrie 1802-1858 and wife Mary Swoap. Their son, John Franklin Guthrie Jr was born in AL, married Mary Thompson in Burleson in 1852, and died in TX in 1901. The family of John Guthrie and Fordella Williams have no known connection to Texas.

Notes: Due to her documented marriage location, descendants presume that Judith Guthrie was also born in Christ Church Parish, Middlesex County, VA. This is the home county for GFG1A-Branch B: Descendants of John Guthrie and Elizabeth Baskett. They believe that Judith is an undocumented child of their son, John Guthrie, whose 2nd wife was Jane Meacham or Mitcham. DNA results are inconclusive.
