Canada, d. 1829 On the emigration roll only five of Peter Reid's six children were listed, which caused a problem when he reached Canada where supplies were given out according to the number in the family. 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."

Lindsay was said to have advised the nobles of Scotland to fight at Flodden on 9 September 1513 but send James IV of Scotland home. In Pitscottie's story, Lindsay compared the forthcoming encounter to a wager of a gold rose-noble against a bent halfpenny. After the battle of Flodden, in December 1513, Lord Lindsay was appointed a counsellor to Margaret Tudor. The arrangement did not last as Margaret married the Earl of Angus and John Stewart, Duke of Albany became regent. In May 1524 Regent Albany appointed Patrick and his son and grandson joint Sheriffs of Fife. He was succeeded as Lord Lindsay by his grandson, John Lindsay, son of John Lindsay of Pitcruvy, Master of Lindsay.	Lindsay, Patrick 4th Lord Lindsay of the Byres (I70188)

c1824 Agnes, b. Canada, d. 1829
On the emigration roll only five of Peter Reid's six children were listed, which caused a problem when he reached Canada where supplies were given out according to the number in the family. 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."
"Margaret, lawful daughter of Peter Reid and Jean Harvie in Kilpatrick was born on the 26th day of July and baptised on the 4th of August in the year one thousand, eight hundred and six. Old Kilpatrick, 17th March 1823. Extracted from the register of this parish by M. Shirra.

Bonnie Guthrie Kuehl, in her story of the James Guthrie family, says that Peter Reid was born at Kirtown, Scotland, a son of Peter Reid and Margaret McKinlay. In 1805 he married Jean Harvie in Old Kilpatrick, Dumbartonshire.
Margaret Reid married James Guthrie; Helen m. Archibald Young and went to Lambton County; Jean married James Dougal Young. Peter Jr. Married Marion Somerville and after her death, Mary Taylor.

(Research):A reputed advisor of James IV of Scotland, and counsellor to Margaret Tudor.
The 16th century writer Robert Lindsay of Pitscottie gave Patrick Lord Lindsay a number of speeches in his chronicle History of Scotland. Lindsay was said to have advised the nobles of Scotland to fight at Flodden on 9 September 1513 but send James IV of Scotland home. In Pitscottie's story, Lindsay compared the forthcoming encounter to a wager of a gold rose-noble against a bent halfpenny.

After the battle of Flodden, in December 1513, Lord Lindsay was appointed a counsellor to Margaret Tudor. The arrangement did not last as Margaret married the Earl of Angus and John Stewart, Duke of Albany became regent. In May 1524 Regent Albany appointed Patrick and his son and grandson joint Sheriffs of Fife.

He was succeeded as Lord Lindsay by his grandson, John Lindsay, son of John Lindsay of Pitcruvy, Master of Lindsay.
