  • Notes 
    • A blacksmith and feuer. 1798 tax roles show him as a smith in Chirnside, with his brother Peter (See Library Item 2).

      Instrumental in formation of a Reform Presbyterian Church

      1793-1802 financial records of Chirnside United Secession Church show him as a donor most years, according to Jim Jeffrey's research in Scotland in May 2018 (email to John Cowan May 23). No earlier records were found, but later records did not include donations from Andrew Jeffrey. These records also list him as an officer of that Church.

      Martinmass donations 1799 show him as a donor, and the "Collector"(?) - see Library/Andrew Jeffrey Ancestors/Peter Jeffrey/2-Martinmass Donors 1799
