Hello folks 
I've been around here for a while and have done some MI look ups but I've not posted a formal offer to do look-ups for KKD parishes MIs before.
Here's the offer

Please post as individual requests and PM me about them. Thanks

Thanks Gadget
Any chance you could look up LANDERS surname for me, they were mostly in Penninghame (Wigtown) but may have also been in Minnigaff.
Also GALLOWAY in Kirkmabreck, Minnigaff and Girthon. Especially any WILLIAM Galloways ( 5 generations of them dotted around!)
Hope i'm not asking for too much.
Kirsty

Thank you so much Gadget.
The Landers are mine, as are the Galloways in Kirkmabreck. I actually have been to the church there and had a wander round, but only found the stone for one of the other brothers.
This is great, thank you so much.

Could I ask you to look up the LANDERS in Kirmabreck also please, in the 1891 census one of the sons missing from the other headstone in Minnigaff had moved there with his family.
Is there any more on the Landers inscription from Minnigaff? I am a bit puzzled as to the place of death of Robert, aged 6. The only Marton Hall i can find is down south in England. 
thanks Kirsty

That is all it has on the Minnigaff one.
Have you checked on the 1841 (freecen or the Dum-Gal historical index site) for the family?
I'll try the other one later but I'm off now for a while.

I had the 1851 census for them and they lived at Barwhirran for years, but having looked up Freecen I found them at "Mertonhall Aglab Hs Knockbrax". Mystery solved.
Thanks

That's good 
No Landers in Kirkmabreck 
These are only monumental inscriptions so if they didn't have a tombstone, they wouldn't be there.

Good on you Gadget
It may be worth noting that the Kirkcudbrightshire MI booklets are a fantastic resource (available from the DGFHS) as they even have sketches of the churchyards and numbered stones so that the memorials can be very easily located
So if you do have ancestors listed its well worth purchasing a copy if you are going exploring
I have the Anwoth, Auchencairn, Balmaclellan, Balmaghie, Borgue, Kirkandrews, Senwick, Buittle, Carsphairn, Lochrutton, Parton, Rerrick, Tongland, Twynholm, Kirkchrist (Stell), Urr, Colvend & Dundrennan Abbey ones. Please PM me if I can help.
I just wish the Dumfriesshire MIs were so well recorded!

Sparkle - how strange - you're asking people to PM you for information that I've already offered. Why not do it publically. This is the spirit of Rootschat after all.
I do hope you can contribute on this thread.

Is that Kirkcudbright or Kircudbrightshire, Pat?
When I hear from you, I'll check what I have.
