Jones I have no Idea both spellings are quite common varients the modern standardised name is Wintrip.
So far in all my searching i have not come across any deaths for these early generations and dont know where to look.
At the mo I am going through every wintrip in scotland on the IGI and have come across a twin in the next generation and lots of possible children for the siblings of my direct ancestors but again have no way of cornfirming if they belong to the right people

any one with any idea/tips on researching this far back?

BVRI has 3 children of Alexander Winterup & Jennet Grey. I suspect the earlier one that you have is a different family. It was in Jedburgh not Roxburgh and no mother's name was given.

right my tree as i have it is
alexander born 1673 = Jannet grey married in june 1694 in jedburgh
I have John 1696 william 1698 isobel 1699 william 1705 christain 1708 eslpeth 1716.
I have john as my direct ancestor marrying Christian brown in 1730 in Eckford although there is a submitted IGI record that has John 1705 marrying christian brown but dont think this is right.
I also have a marriage banns for a Margaret winthrap to George cairns in 1731 in eckford that gives alexander wintrope name(both spellings are used on the same document) but i have not been able to find a birth record for her.
I have trawled through the igi and scotland people but there dosnt seem to be another Alexander who would fit the bill for being the father of John 1696. or another alexander who could be the father of the later children and why would there be such a gap between alexander and jannet marrying in 1694 and not having their first child till 1705?
I dismissed the oxnam one as being to far removed in spelling an its is a place that dosnt crop up anywhere else where as jedburgh eckford and roxburgh all do.
I suspect that those are indeed the children of William but as yet i havent recorded them as i have been busy with my direct line.
