If anyone has the Kinross-shire burials book could they have a wee look for a John Miller and Mary Drummond please?
I know they were married in 1800 in Fossoway & Tullibole, they had their last child (as far as I can tell) in 1807. So possibly born around 1780ish and definitely died before 1855.
Ta' Derek.
btw, this must be one of the least visited boards on the whole website. Was it that sparsely populated? If anyone has Kinross-shire ancestors mine are Miller, Drummond, Gray, Dick and Honyman.

Hi, Derek, I do agree about the least visited board, but I live in hope of finding long-lost relations. My g.g.g.grandmother was also a Mary Drummond but she married John Bruce in 1802. I believe she was the daughter of John Drummond and Margaret Paterson. The Drummonds appear to have originated in Kinross and moved to Markinch before Mary's marriage. Don't know if this is of any interest to you. Regards, Old Scoonie
I would have to agree with you, and it's a great pity. I see you mentioned the Dick family and the Honeyman family. Those names appear in my Family Tree, but the Dick family that I have, lived around Bannockburn, Stirlingshire and married into the Cooper's.
There would have to be quite a few of my "rellie's" laid to rest in Kinross, but I wouldn't have a clue where to start! Many of my family still live just over Benarty Hill from Loch Leven - what a breath-taking place that is.
