He therfore had to obtain three depositions to prove the existence of his sixth child. Two of these read as follows:
"That Peter Reid of the Bridgeton Canadian Society had when he left this country for the Lanark Settlement in the province of Upper Canada, six children viz two boys and four girls. Certified by Will McCartney, minister and M. Shirra, Elder, Old Kilpatrick, 17 Mar 1823."
