![]() This image was modified to add the ancient location of Balchrystie and Incharvie in Newburn Parish. Interactaive Map | Balchrystie and Incharvie Many of our Finley Ancestors were from the area around Perth and Fifeshire.
John and Andrew were in Perthshire in the late 1400's. Father Scott Archer wrote: "Newburn Parish, is just a little northwest of old Balchrystie. This is not a great distance from where Largo, Scotland is today, and a short distance from Largo Bay in Fife. It's a lovely area, and not too far from St. Andrew's University, etc." Alexander Finley was born in 1667 at Inchervie, St. Andrew's.
