Here is also a link to Sentry Hill info, which Im sure you've seen before. If you would like to see a picture of the actual Carnmoney Parish church I could take a photo for you, as I live very close to it.
Hope that all helps

There's a lovely book written about Sentry Hill and the McKinney family by Brian M. Walker which has been reprinted at least once. Plenty of photos and family details.

Hi Lis, I would be delighted if you could look up some info for me. My GG Grandparents are interred in Carnmoney. They are Robert Thompson who died 23/11/1878 and Mary Thompson/Johnston who died 05/04/1895. Apparently both sides of the family for generations have been buried in Carnmoney old graveyard. There should be a Samuel Thompson buried in one of 8 graves just below the old church. I would be really gratefull if you could give me any information on any Thompson's or Johnston's in the old graveyard. I look forward to hearing from you. Faith

Hi Faith,
Out of interest are there any McClinton's buried there as I believe a branch lived there for quite some time.
Many thanks

Hi Lis
I was wondering if you were able to check on the surname Henderson (William Hugh and a wife if you can find her) and John and Frances Wilson (nee Laird). Family stories say they were interred in Carnmoney, but I do not know for sure.
Greatly appreciated.
Siggyg

It was worth a shot.
