Lair 13 George Bryan late farmer in Dykes d 6 dec 1849 aged 80, his wife Mary McGregor d 22 nov 1849 aged 79. there were McGregor's in Dykes Farm until a few years ago.

Hello Revmother
Many thanks for your incredibly quick response. I'm just getting to grips with the variety of spelling of the same names - don't think the McGregors belong but I'll do some searching forward down the line to see if this is a branch off. I have baptisms for two of the children of this couple in Mauchline in 1798 and 1800 (unfortunately both girls - one of whom is my mother's line) and hoped to find either James or Margaret's parents in the graveyard! Many thanks,
Fairlane

Hi Welshgirl No joy, sorry. You don't give any idea of dates. The cemetery is mainly 19th century, as there is a new cemetery outside the village that has been used since then, and there isn't a book for it. Any Neil or Neill's weren't those first names, sorry revmother

Fairlane,
So very very strange as I am reading these posted messages. My maiden name was "Muir". On my father's side my ancestral roots are in Scotland.
My great grandfather was James Muir. He was born Jan. 6, 1826 in Kilmarnock, Ayreshire, Scotland. He died Mar. 11, 1910 in Canada. My great grandmother was Jane Maxwell. She was born June 2, 1836 in Scotland. She died Dec/ 18, 1927 in Canada. Jane was the daughter of Hugh Maxwell. I do not know her mother's name.
Thought I would pass this on.
Doris

Hi Sue have you tried the scotland web site : www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk - you can search for births etc on there. It might give you some clues. you pay for 30 credits that cost £6 and last about 90 days (I always use them in less than a week!!) I don't have any credits on there at the moment or I would look them up for you. but you can look up their births and marriage. remember to tick the soundex box if a certain spelling of the surname doesn't come up with anything. just had a free peep - only 25 Lowries born in scotland between 1810 and 1812, so you might be able to narrow that down a bit if you pay up your pennies! the birth certificates would certainly help you. good hunting revmother
