*This family is total fiction on my part. I'm looking for facts.

I don't know who the father of my own relative John Renwick may have been but the family story is that John was related to James Renwick, the Last Covenanter Leader of Scotland.

James Renwick's father was said to have been a weaver. This could be family craft. Since James Renwick, the Martyr, was only twenty-six years old at the time of his death I doubt that he had any children if he was married at all. James Renwick's father was Andrew and Elizabeth Renwick. Their other children apparently died so he was raised as an only child. With James' busy life of education and preaching he probably didn't marry so I doubt he could be a direct ancestor but perhaps his grandfather maybe. I'm still looking for any information on this family. Please contact me with any leads you may have.
