- Don't know where he was minister. Involved in case in 1593. I think this may have been David Lindsay of Putturmie. He was minister at South Leith (Restalrig) from 1560 until 17th century but was actively involved in politics. He attended Assembly 50 times, was closely associated with James VI (he conducted marriage ceremony and baptism of royal children). Was appointed bishop of Ross and was member of Privy Council from 1600 and accompanied James to London. He kept his parish appointment but there seems to have been a reader there until his son took over in 1613. He seems to have been around a very long time.
