  Research Notes:

Parentage is currently conjectural, based on available records which fit the place and time. Searched for Robert Lesly, father Robert Lesly, mother unknown, year 1750 +/- 20 years, all records, Scotland. Found record of christening for Robert Leslie, son of Elizabeth Honeyman (1931 family tree lists WH) and Robert Leslie. Have used this for the time being, unless some more definitive information comes along. Details of Robert's siblings based on information about offspring of Robert Leslie and Elizabeth Honeyman, so also conjectural.

• Residence, 1815, Myreside, Fife, Scotland. Tennant.

• Occupation: Weaver: Radernie, Cameron, Fife, Scotland.
