Can someone tell me how to get a copy of the Tombstone Inscriptions? I am interested in the Watten Cemetery in particular the Tombstone Inscriptions listed as WA4 Number 26, f0r SMITH, and the SUTHERLAND Name also listed as 26 and 27.
Thanks

I wonder if anyone could check the Watten, DUNNET, or CANISBAY Cemetery details and tell me if there is a record for
James Manson born 1756 or Christan GEORGESON Manson born about 1756 who died after 1851
... or any Mansons or Henderson who died around 1851 probably at Gersay, Watten, Caithness
I know their daughter Bel (born 1803 died about 1851) who married David Henderson, was buried in CANISBAY Cemetery, but wish I had the details for the reference I found in the index as HENDERSON I CB8 339
I am also curious about the other family nearby, esp:
MANSON C CB8 339
MANSON J CB8 339
MANSON M CB8 339
MANSON S CB8 339
Could anyone help me out with details, or in the Watten Cemetery show me the details for:
MANSON A WA4 65,114
MANSON B WA4 132
MANSON H WA4 114
MANSON I WA4 4
MANSON J WA4 93,114
MANSON M WA4 114
I hope to visit there on our trip this fall, so am also interested in the location of these graves as well ...

W13 is WICK OLD
DUNNET 106 is
