  Narrative

I've included only McCrobert's in the LDS Parish Records which specifically say Thomas father and also right date range. There may be 2 Thomas McCrobert's as I can't account for this record:
Thomas McCrobert m. ? c Isobell m John Stewart 19 Apr 1711 Kirkinner
4 cases:
First Thomas who married Janet Milmine had children Janet 1704 and Patrick 1739 ?
Second Thomas who married Elizabeth Connen had Janet 1712
Third Thomas and unknown mother had Isobell 1711 and Margaret <1706
Fourth Thomas father of William

The birth of "lawful daughter" Janet in 19 Nov 1704 to Thomas McRobert and Janet Milmine and the marriage of Thomas McRobert to Elizabeth Connen 20 Jun 1704 cannot be the same Thomas McCrobert.

--> Milmine could be McIlmine, related to Janet McIlmine who married Willam McRobert in 1721.

"1 Apr 1712 Thomas McCrobert and Elisabeth Connine in Kilwauch had a lawful daughter born on Friday the 20th of March and Baptised the 1st April called Janet" - probably means they were living on Kirwaugh farm which is 1.4 miles from Bladnoch.
