According to www.abdnet.co.uk/burialgrounds, ANESFHS have an unpublished name index and plan for Premnay. If you go into their research centre at 158-164 King St Aberdeen, the list will be in the library. Non-members are charged to use facilities, but members are free. Details from www.anesfhs.org.uk. If you live far from Aberdeen, I may be able to help.

Sorry to take so long to reply. There are 3 gravestones at Premnay for Tough, 3 for Robb and 6 for Stephen. There are no Maitlands. There is one that contains both Robb and Stephen, copied below. If you need any details of the others, please give me some more information.
1845: Sacred to the memory of WILLIAM STEPHEN farmer in Burry Hillock, Pramney(sic) d.21 Jan.1844 aged 75, his wife ELIZABETH ROBB d.21 Aug.1845 aged 69. ADAM STEPHEN d.Auchleven 3 Jan.1899 aged 86. Bottom: Erected by their sons
Please note that since the MIs are unpublished, they are unlikely to have been checked, so accuracy is not guaranteed. Hope that helps

Hi Meetoo
Could you possibly look up Milne for me? I live down in Cheshire and so a visit is a bit difficult for me.
Much regards
Gemma

Hi
Sorry took so long to reply!! I believe George Milne is buried there possibly with his wife Jean Smith. I believe he died 29 April 1798.
Thanks
Gem

Hi Mee too!
I notice that you have helped out others looking for info on Premnay graveyard. I'm researching surnames Rae, Davidson and possible Stewart from Premnay. My ggg grandmother Catherine Rae was born in Premnay in c1809 to Margaret Davidson c1776 and William Rae c1776. Williams parents were Janet Taylor and Alexander Rae. Margarets parents were Jane Stewart and Hugh Davidson. I'd be very grateful if you were to be able to find any info on any of these.
Im in Congo so unable to visit the centre in Aberdeen.
I notice one of your surnames of research is Fiddes, I have a ggg grandmother Agnes Fiddes born approx 1785 possibly Kincardinshire, and died 1879 Banchory area I think. Her parents were Robert Fiddes and illegible Jaffrey? Just wondered if there may be a possile link?
many thanks
Ian

Hi Ian
I had a check in the Premnay MIs, but I'm sorry to disappoint you - there are no stones to those names you mention, I'm afraid.
As to Fiddes ancestors - my great gandfather was Robert Fiddes, illeg. son of Ann Lamond and Robert Fiddes (allegedly). He was born in Old Machar (Aberdeen). His father was also illegitimate, but I know nothing of him but doubt that they were in Kincardine area, but you never know!

Thank you for your very speedy response and taking time to check out the records. It also helps to know where info is not so that you concentrate on other areas instead!
There is some confusion over Agnes Fiddes (married name Fraser)
death, as body was found at roadside assumed to be that of Agnes, later discovered to be male and drowned! Would be interesting to know the full story! Do you have any idea if there would be newspaper records of the Banchory area for 1879 which may have reported this?
thanks again
Ian
