Pretrial notes: This case was under a Privy council commission (see PC1/51 p. 136-9) along with most of the people tried at the same time. There were other Renfrewshire witchcraft suspects tried at different places and times. I am keeping this as a mixed/central local because the Privy Council maintained very strict control over the proceedings, even though they granted a commission. For details of the proceedings of Privy Council in this matter see the no named witches case c/la/3235. (English)
Trial notes: unclear what happened to her, she was indicted and then no more information. Diet was continued till 28/5/1697 but no evidence about what happened. (English)
