Scottish records of the name Torrens

These notes, dated July 1978, on the genealogy of the Torrance Family, are part of a series made by D. Richard Torrance. The copy in my possession is a carbon copy, so is slightly unclear in places. The notes are reproduced as accurately as possible.

Avondale Parish Registers: Births 1699 - 1785

The spelling of the name has been noted. However it is evident that the spelling is erratic: several times the same family has a different spelling.
