It must be borne in mind that, when compiling his monumental work, Dr. Scott had access neither to Album I. (see footnote on p. viii.) nor to any of the records used by the present editor to fill up the gap from 1682-83 to 1699-1700, nor to the Town Council Register, where alone, from 1619 to 1773, are entered the names of students' fathers. The earlier graduation lists of St. Andrews (not yet printed), of Glasgow (printed in part in the Mimimenta), of King's College (printed in part in the Fasti Aberd.), and of Edinburgh (printed in 1858 and 1867), have no record of parentage. These appear to have been examined by Dr. Scott, as also probably Albums II.-IV. of Marischal College, and his method seems to have been to identify A. B., ordained minister of the parish of C. in say 1650 with the like named graduate of St. Andrews, Glasgow, King's Coll. or Edinburgh nearest in date to 1650: allowance being made, in doubtful cases, for the proximity of C. to these four Universities respectively. It is easy to see how some of these identifications might be upset by the discovery of the Marischal registers, with in many cases the parentage of the students. C
