I haven't come across any Murrays that I can recall. Please tell us what you know about Margaret and her parents and I'll see if anything fits into the Hyslop/Davidsons Smiley

Cheers

Hi Sparkle.

I'm new on this site and have just been looking around the posts for Kirkcudbrightshire when I saw this entry.

The group of graves you mention in Lockrutton cemetery  are of intrest to me. Mainly plot No 194. This relates to William Hyslop, his wife Janet Rae & some of their children.
Janet Rae is my 4th Great grand aunt on my father side of the family. It was Janet's sister Deborah that was the link to my grandmother Jessie Helen Payne Muir who was born in Lockrutton in 1895. Jessie,s brother James Muir is also commemorated on the WW1 memorial on the outside of the church.

Hello Matt,

Lovely to hear from you :-D

I havent' been on here for a few days.

Here is a picture of the memorial:

This is from the CWGC, I think this is James:

Initials:    J
Nationality:    Canadian
Rank:    Sergeant
Regiment/Service:    Canadian Infantry (British Columbia Regiment)
Unit Text:    7th Bn.
Age:    28
Date of Death:    15/08/1917
Service No:    442133
Additional information:    Son of Robert and Jessie Muir, of 20, Maxwell St., Dalbeattie, Scotland; husband of Agnes Boyd Muir, of 35, Gallowflat St., Rutherglen, Glasgow, Scotland.

Does the parents/wife information fit?

I have a photo of William Hyslop's grave, I'll post it up tomorrow as its a bit too late to dig it out just now.

Thanks again for posting its lovely to make another Hyslop connection :-)

Hi Sparkle.
Thanks for the response. That is my James Muir & his parents. He had emigrated to Canada & joined the Canadian forces in June 1915. While on leave from the front he married Agnes Boyd at Rutherglen,Glsgow on 1st August 1917. 14 days later he was killed in action at Lens,France.
James youngest sister Robina (Ruby) was a school teacher at Lockfoot village.Their parents Robert & Jessie Payne both died in the schoolhouse in 1936 & 37 respectively.
