Notes by Robert Sewell with thanks to Jane Reade, March 2003:

    Sir Hector Livingston Duff wrote:  "John Livingston married, on the 23rd June, 1635, Janet, daughter of Bartholomew Fleming.  She was a kinswoman of the Earl of Wigton who, with his eldest son, Lord Fleming, attended the wedding."

     However, Sir Hector does not indicate how Janet was related to the Earl of Wigton.  As well, we now have references to  Wigton, Wigtown and Wigtoun:

• Wigton, Cumbria is located in the north west of England, about 10 miles south west of Carlisle.
• Wigtown, Dumfries is located in the south west of Scotland, about 50 miles west of Wigton, Cumbria across the Solway Firth.
• Miss Van Rensselaer clearly refers to "Isabel of Wigtoun" who married Thomas Livingston who died on April 18, 1619.  It is unclear whether this is Wigton, Wigtown or some other "Wig" place.
