Hello Mitch,
Listed in the pre-1855 Book:
Flat Stone
James Mitchell & Elizabeth Read (or Rae) - no other details
What was your James' wife's name?

Thanks Anne,
Not mine, James Mitchell was married firstly to Beatrix Watson (buried at Airth 1811) & secondly to Isabella Taylor (married at Airth 1815, she dies their 1869).
I just wondered if James `returned home` to be buried with the first marriage being at St Ninians.
Other than Beatrixs burial the other Mitchell burials at Airth appear to be residents of Kersie rather than Dunmore.
Thanks for your time
Mitch

Hello All,
I have just stumbled on this thread and was amazed and delighted to see photo's of St Ninian's as I've been wanting to make a trip there for sometime to do some research (I live and work in Qatar, Middle East). Some of the postings also gave me a good chuckle. My wife and I have been researching family history for awhile and for my male line appears to go back to St. Ninian's and an Alexander MacLachlan and his wife Elizabeth Mitchell who married 19 Nov 1812 (both born around 1791). I believe Alexander was a nail smith and had a son John MacLauchlan born 1820 Pirnhall, Sterlingshire but seems to have migrated to Govan, Glasgow. Can anybody tell me if Alexander and/or Elizabeth are buried in St. Ninian's and any advise on who to contact for assistance in looking at local records i.e. those not online. Thanks and regards to you all - not least for the chuckles. Alan.

Hi Mach 1,
Welcome to Rootschat!
No sign of your ancestors in the pre-1855 MI Book - no MacLachlans (or variants) at all, but these are only MI's, not actual burials.

Anne,
Many many thanks for taking the time and trouble to do a check for me.
Disappointing it didn't turn up any new leads but the search will go on.
Have a wonderful day. 
Regards,
Alan.

Only one wee solitary Dun(n) in the whole Churchyard......
It's described as:
Square stone
1850 JOHN DUNN MARGARET FERGUSON
They'll have been husband and wife - the wife 99% of the time always listed by her maiden name.
