Hi Jac2,
Thanks for doing the Beugo and Halkerstoun lookups. I would be very interested in deaths relating to either of these names - you are right
they most unusual and most likely relate to my tree.
Thanks again for your help - most appreciated

Hi Diddy,
Thank you for your quick response to my request. I am having a day off work today and will have time study your finds. I am sure some of them if not all will be connected to my tree. Either way I am looking forward to studying them.
Thanks again

Hi Chiad
As far as i know i'm not related to the bennets and halkerstons.
I was just doing a look up for someone else who has halkerstons in their tree.

Hi Jacci and Diddy
I'm back from my visit to Fife and not sure where to post but I thought I'd put it here. I had a marvellous time and thanks to the information you gave me I found my 5xggf's grave in Falkland and also found another generation of Betts/Beats in the records in Dundee Family History Centre as well as the elusive death of my 3xggm who died in childbirth. I walked along West Port in Falkland where my ancestors lived and tried without success to find the butcher's shops in Dundee, the site of one is the ring road and the other a car park! I did however find Dudhope Castle where a brother of my 4xggf was Drill Sergeant.
I absolutely loved Falkland and will stay there if we are lucky enough to go again. We were staying in Dundee and I have to say that the town planners need shooting - that ring road makes the place feel like it is permanently under seige!
I didn't get to Kirkcaldy and didn't get half the stuff I wanted. The nonconformist records for Leslie will have to wait for the next visit but once I have sorted out all the information I have gathered I will be asking for your help again to track the ancestors I didn't get.
Finally, I found Monimail Parish Church where my 4xggf was married and his 12 children were christened and of all the places I visited that one gave me such a spooky feeling, as if they knew I was there! I got some cracking photos and the staff in the libraries were great so I also got lots of old maps and photos.
Once again, many thanks for your help.
Regards
Ruby
