    Notes:

    Before marrying James, Ann had a child out of wedlock, in 1848 and was taken before the Church Session where she confessed "that she had brought forth a male child in fornication the father of whom is Thomas Whyte junior, baker residing in Bathgate and that he has acknowledged the paternity. The session having been previously acquainted with these facts took her upon discipline she was accordingly solemnly exhorted and rebuked and absolved and restored to Church privileges".
    Church of Scotland Old Parish Records

    Despite this Ann does not seem to have learnt her lesson.
    James and Ann's first child, Peter was born 4 months after they married. On 9 May 1852 Ann again had to front the Church Session at the manse, this time along with her husband James.
    Present was the Rev. William Branks, Moderator and Messres Calder and Sleay, Elders.
    "James and Ann Dale confessing that they had been guilty of ante-niutial fornication. They were solemnly rebuked and absolved of the scandal of said sin and Ann Dale was restored to the privileges of the Church with prayer. (Signed) William Branks, Moderator."
    Church of Scotland Old Parish Records

    What is strange about this that Ann had her privileges restored but not James.

    James was the informant on the death of his mother-in-law, Margaret Kay, in 1870.

    Second of Apr 1871 saw him as farm manager of Torphichen Mains, a 40 acre farm containing a house and byre. The farm was owned by the heirs of Margaret Dale, his wfe's mother

    Graham Marshall reports "James purchased a dwelling house on the south side of the Close in Torphichen Village on the 26 Feb 1873 from his wife's nephew, William Dale who had moved to Glasgow. The property included a 1/4 part of the Fala Moss and the piece of ground , part of the Loch of Torphichen which by then had been dried out to form a yard on the south and west side of the house. Its location was described as 'bounded on the east by the highway; tenement of Houses and Yeard (sic) thereto belonging on the south part of the easter half of a pece of ground called the Loch of Torphichen betwixt the Mains Yeards on the north, the Loch Yeard on the south and the Beanyard on the west'. It looks likely that this was merely James buying out his wife's relations from their share of his mother-in-law's property."

    James was the informant on the death of his duaghter, margaret, in 1877.

    Death Notes: James' death was reported by his neighbour, William Taylor McRain of Millburn Cottage suggesting there was no family member available to inform the registrar and certainly his wife and children were dead and his siblings scattered. His sister Marion and family to Bathgate over fifty years before; Jane and brother Robert to New Zealand around the same time; Robert to Edinburgh where he had married sixty years before; Mary Ann and family had moved about but were back in Fauldhouse before she died a few years before James; similarly Peter had died in Armadale only six years before and John in Torphichen a few before that. One have might have expect several nieces and nephews in or fairly near the village but perhaps his neighbour knew him best.

    Occupation:
    The farm was owned by the heirs of Margaret Dale, his wfe's mother.

    James married Agnes Dale on 28 Dec 1851 in Torphichen, West Lothian, Scotland. Agnes (daughter of William Dale and Margaret Kay) was born on 21 Sep 1825 in Torphichen, West Lothian, Scotland; was christened on 9 Oct 1825 in Torphichen, West Lothian, Scotland; died on 30 Mar 1900 in Torphichen, West Lothian, Scotland; was buried in Torphichen Churchyard, West Lothian, Scotland.

    Notes:

    On 17 Jul.1814 Peter paid for the banns to be read. "Proclamation of Peter Aitken, in this parish (Torphichen) and Janet Pearson, in Linlithgow, twice in one day".

    In 1832 he paid 6/8 for the use of the "best mortcloth used to the deceased Marion Liddell", his mother-in-law.

    On the 1st Dec 1837, he was absolved by the Kirk Session at Torphichen, of the sin of drunkenness, using profane language and riotous behaviour but not before having held out for quite a while against the Session.
    The following comes from the research of Graham Marshall, with great thanks.
    " Peter was charged with the offences when he went to the minister, in Feb 1833, to arrange to have his son Robert baptised. The minister took the opportunity to report him to the Session ' in consequence of certain complaints as to the repeated instances of drunkenness as of late'.
    Peter Aitken initially refused to play their games which led to the Session appointing a committee comprising the Minister, the Session Clerk and four Elders to sort him out.
    Thus it was that Peter appeared before this Church Court in Torphichen on 25th March 1833 charged with one specific instance of his alleged offences and that on the night of New Years Day he had been in widow Arthur's house 'in a state of intoxication and of then or there having uttered profane oaths and of having conducted himself both in the said house and about the door in a riotous manner.'
    He admitted that he had been in the house but denied that he had been intoxicated or uttered profane oaths or behaved in a riotous manner. The Session then called witnesses to prove their case.
    First came widow Arthur (Agnes Walker widow of the late Thomas Arthur) who remembered Peter Aitken coming to her house about ten or eleven o'clock and that while he had been drinking he was in control of himself. It appears he sent her for a bottle of whisky and that she had brought him half a bottle and was sent for and found another, there is no mention of where she found them.
    It seems the company were willing to share Peter's first bottle of whisky but not so the second, referred to in the Session Minutes as 'spirits in a bottle'. He appararntly tried to persuade Norman McQueen to take a drink but there was something about it that persuaded Norman to throw it on the back of the fire which displeased Peter Aitken who threatened to ' pit him up in the reek'.
    There seems to have been a scuffle after that but there was conflicting evidence from the widow Arthur and others as to exactly what happened. John Brodie and Norman McQueen seemed to be involved asn so it seems was Peter. There seems to have been an attempt to take the disagreement outside which resulted in Norman being pulled into the house and Peter, being outside, hammering on the door to be let back in. John Brodie clearly had remained inside since he, it was claimed, had gone to the door and asked if they wanted him. It sounds as if William Aitken was also outside although the evidence hardly mentions him. Peter apparently answered 'No it was old Nany and young Nanny and Mary and that them to put them in the dam.'
    The second witness, Paul McFail refused to take the oath so the proceedings were postponed until the following day to hear more witnesses; Agnes Arthur the widow's daughter, John Marshall and Margaret, his daughter.
    Agnes seemed clearer than her mother about who was in their house on New Year's night. She told how Mary Gunn, Norman McQueen one of their lodgers, John Brodie another lodger and her mother were there when Peter Aitken came in with William Aitken (possibly his brother) but supported her mother's view that he was not drunk. She was also clearer about who left, listing Peter Aitken, William Aitken, Paul McFail and John Brodie. She, her mother and Mary Gunn then went to bed, however she later said she had been in bed all of the time and couldn't see all that happened. It seems that John Marshall came in towards the end of the incident and had the poker taken to him by Agnes who had risen from her bed to clear the house. His testimony added a touch of farce when he claimed to remember meeting Peter Aitken and going with him to James Aitken's (probably another brother) house then on to Philip Gunn's house but that he could not remember being in widow Arthur's house. His daughter Maggie cleared that one up when she told how she had collected her father from there and took him home.
    There is something ironic in the choice of date to hear the evidence for the defence - April first.
    Peter went first and he admitted using intemperate language but not fighting or being drunk. He called Philip Gunn who described Peter Aitken as 'except for himself, the soberest man in the company in his house on the night of the 1st of January'.
    The evidence seemed to have little effect on the Session Committee who referred it to the Presbytery who met two days later at Linlithgow where Peter argued that the evidence given for and against him was contradictory. But did acknowledge that he 'had in face of much provocation spoken one unguarded word for which he was sorry and resolved to be on his guard'. But that was not enough for the Presbyters who 'resolved without a vote to appoint a committee of three to examine the extract minutes of the Kirk Session of Torphichen and report to next meeting of Presbytery what facts appeared to them to be substantiated by the evidence.'
    The committee reported back in three weeks with a neat summary of what they saw as the evidence. They were 'clearly of the opinion that the evidence proves that Peter Aitken had been drinking freely in the house of Philip Gunn, that he came with others to the house of Widow Arthur and sent for whisky. But it does not seem proved that Peter Aitken was very much intoxicated; that it seems true that Peter Aitken did then use profane language and behaved in a riotous manner in the Widow Arthur's house and after outside of her door demanding admittance and that the witnesses brought by Peter Aitken do not in any respect rebut the evidence on the part of the prosecution.'
    The Presbytery agreed with the findings and referred it back to the Session for action who in their turn referred it to the Minister, His success in dealing with Peter Aitken was complete. He took only another two an a half years to persuade Peter to apologise to session. Whether Robert and his sister " (Roobert and Catherin children of Peter who were born in this time)" were then baptised is not recorded but normal service was resumed with the baptism of the next child, Mary Ann in 1938."

    In the 1861 census two grandchildren, William aged 5 and John aged 7 months were living with Peter and Janet
    In the 1871 census, grandchild William aged 18 was living with Peter and Janet
