The Wattten Kirk Session minutes were checked from 1772 to start of 1776, with no mention of any McAdy (or variants) found, either as being in receipt of relief payments or being rebuked "for ucleanliness" (Watten kirk session, Minutes (1749-1779), CH2/364/3.)2
     Janet's surname(s) show as both Campbell and assorted spellings of McCurthiie.
The baptism of son Robert shows his mother as Janet Campbell, but his death cert. shows a Janet McCurthie.
A George whose baptism entry to a William in Newton and his spouse Janet McCurchie, together with Robert's death cert., adds to the conclusion of Janet being known under both surnames as he fits nicely in a gap by time between William and Janet's chldren Janet and isobel McAdie, where daughter Janet was also born in Newton.

E. & O. E. Some/most parish records are rather hard to read and names, places hard to interpret, particularly if you are unfamiliar with an area.
