Do we have any experts on Covenanters and Jacobites? The Patrick Hume, 1st Earl of Marchmont article is clearly a copy n paste from somewhere, and completely contradicted by this article. Could someone please clarify, preferably with ext refs? Please see:

There seems no evidence at all that this is his tomb. Even disregarding the confused historical background here I would hazard that the "Marchmont" here refers to a Marchmont family plot NOT the Earl of Marchmont. It says he lived in Canongate but where does that idea stem from. Should we not just delete this section?-- Stephencdickson ( talk) 18:38, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
Another flat contradiction here:
He died in 1913 in Mayfair and was buried in the village of Great Bookham in Surrey.

I suggest this should be called Canongate Kirkyard. PatGallacher ( talk) 19:58, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved. Unopposed for over three weeks. Jenks24 ( talk) 13:34, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
Canongate Churchyard →
Canongate Kirkyard – This its common name, it is inconsistent to use the present name when we have
Canongate Kirk. Relisted.

The presence of Ebenezer Scroggie's grave is disputed. There is no evidence that Scoggie existed, nor has there been a grave with his name in the kirkyard. It is possible that he is part of a "Dicken's hoax". [1] [2] Mike Marchmont ( talk) 08:04, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
