- minister at Kinneil
- "William Wishart, son of Alexander W., of the Pittarrow family, Forfarshire, born Dec. 1621 ; M.A. (Edinburgh, 15th April 1645); adm. 22nd Aug. 1649. He joined the Protesters, and formed one of the Dissenting Presb. from 6th Aug. 1651 to 11th Feb. 1659 ; he was confined to his chamber at Edinburgh by the Committee of Estates, 15th Sept. 1660, and five days afterwards was imprisoned in the Tolbooth, where he remained for thirteen months, until released on the petition of the Presb. His stipend was sequestrated for his refusal to disown the Remonstrance or sign the bond for keeping the peace. On his wife petitioning Parliament, showing his sad condition, " as now prisoner in the Castle of Stirling, throw want of meanes, while ane numerous familie were dependant," an Act was passed, 29th Jan. 1661, whereby "all arrears of stipend were ordered to be payed to her be the persones lyable in payment thereof." Another half-year's stipend was paid to himself. He was intercommuned by the Council, 6th Aug. 1675, for keeping conventicles ; ordered 5th Feb. 1685 to be sent to His Majesty's plantations for declining the Test, but liberated from prison 24th Aug. 1685, "upon giving bond with caution under 5000 merks to compear when called." At the Toleration he began to preach, and took charge of the congregation in Leith where he had his residence, 10th July 1687, promising to continue until a min. was settled, though he stands enrolled as a min. in Presb. of Linlithgow at 25th July 1688, and was appointed one of the Pres. Committee to General Meeting in Edinburgh, 1st May 1689
