Row, John (2),

a Presbyterian divine, and son of John Row the reformer, was born at Perth in 1568. He studied at the University of Edinburgh, and was minister of Carnock, Fifeshire, from 1592 till 1644. His death took place in 1646. He wrote The Historie of the Kirk of Scotland (1558-1637), which, after lying in MS. for more than 200 years, has recently been twice privately printed, together with a continuation by his sons to 1639 (Edinb. Maitland Club, 1842, 2 vols. 4to; 2d ed. ibid. Wodrow Society, 1842, 4to).
