William Guthrie was described as a workman at Pow of Errol (1788), Mains of Errol (1790 and 1791), and Lorny (1794) in the baptismal records of his children. The marriage of William and Jean Tait was recorded in the minutes of the Kirk session of 9 July 1787. At the time of the 1841 census, he was living in the parish of Kinfauns. Living with him were his daughter, Helen, and her three children, Robert, Alexander, and Jean. At the time of the 1851 census, these same people were living together at Garry Cottage, Barnhill, Kinnoull Parish, Perthshire. There is no proof that three of the children (Anne, Charles, and James) listed for William and Jean Tait Guthrie were in fact their children. This may be the William Guthrie recorded in the parish records of Dunbarney as having had a child in 1804. This William Guthrie was identified as a servant to John Archer, tenant at Easter Kinmonth, which seems to differentiate him from the William Guthrie identified as a weaver in other Dunbarney baptismal records.

Cause of death was old age (73), and the burial was in Kinnoull.
