I am researching the RAE family from around Muiravonside, Stirling. I would be grateful for any ideas anyone might have about finding Elizabeth RE.

Here is what I know about the family:
Alexander Hoog (Hogue on the marriage record) married Elizabeth Re on 30/12/1701.
They went on the to have the following children:
William Hoog (1705)
James Hoog (4/1/1708)
Alexander Hoog (4/12/1709)
Susanna Hoog (21/9/1712)
James Hoog (28/4/1714)
Elizabeth Hoog (10/3/1717)
John Hoog (14/2/1720)

All the children were born in Muiravonside, Stirlingshire, Scotland.

I am trying to find out more information about the mother Elizabeth RE. I'm guessing she was born around 1680 around Sitrlingshire.

Many thanks in advance for any ideas.

So far I've looked at all the original documents through ScotlandsPeople, as well as ancestry.com, family search, TomPaterson.co.uk & findmypast.

Hi, I think that is a good idea - I did wonder about Elspett Rae. I'll have a bit more of an explore based on that name.
