Just adding some snippets to see if anyone can help Carol further with deciphering or info. This first one is from the 1832 OPR Death/Burial register for a Mrs Rigby, aged 58. The following words show as: Buried from R. J. F. ? Going by the previous entries, maybe place of death for Mrs Rigby?

The second snippet is from a possible sister to John McLeod Rigby, a Jean Rigby who married a McIntosh. Her death reg in 1857 in Dundee, at the age of 71 years, unfortunately does not name husband but just shows her as the 'widow of a sawyer'. This is in the style of the entries on the page, so nothing unusual on the page. A son John was the informant to her death. No further details for him.

Looks like Jean's husband was also John. From 1851:

John Mcintosh 71 sawyer b. Newtyle, Forfarshire
Jean Rigby 65 b. Edinburgh
Anne Mcintosh 30 daughter b. Dundee
Elizabeth Boorie 11 grandchild b. Dundee

Address: 91 Blacks Croft, Dundee

In 1841, there is this listing:

John McIntosh 60 wood cutter
Jean McIntosh 55
Anne McIntosh 20
James McIntosh 16 Chain Maker
Margaret McIntosh 14
Elizabeth Mcintosh 1
Thomas Mitchell 6

Address: Blacks Croft, Dundee

        There is a Jean McIntosh at 1 Smalls Lane, Dundee on the 1851 census.    Her age seems to tie in with the Jean McIntosh who died aged 71.

        Census 1851
        Jean McIntosh  aged 64 Pauper Winder
        Isabella Young daughter  aged 20   Mill Worker

        It is on both An ...try and S...lands Pe...le.

I saw that too Doddsie  :) Thought though that the other 1841/51 entries fitted with the address for Jean Rigby/McIntosh at the time of her death in 1857 (Black Croft) and unnamed husband's occupation of a sawyer.

What do you think?

Yep, that is the one I thought followed back too, Doddsie. Don't worry about duplicating, the more eyes checking the same info the better!

We keep on trying to find clues to John Rigby and Janet Mcleod (from son John McLeod Rigby's DC) but struggle a lot  :-\

What we have as entries do not seem to feature really so far on the OPRs (wondering what religion the family might have been too?).

Found some possible entries for Jean Rigby and John McIntosh....problem with her surname. Morphs away from straight mistranscription into a different surname for Rigby. Haven't made any headway either way but will add details below. There are some Ancestry family trees on this family of John McIntosh and Jean Rigby, which then also link to further trees for same children to John McIntosh and Jean, but her surname different from Rigby. As showing on the OPRs:

Marriage in 1805 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XTVY-T22

Elizabeth 1810 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XYNB-W4D
Marjory 1812 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XYNB-VX8
Euphemia 1814 - 30 Oct 1814 in Dundee (from fam. trees)
John 1817 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XYN1-7BY - informant to death of Jean in 1857?
David 1822 - 17 Jun 1822 in Dundee  (from fam. trees)
Margaret 1827 -  17 Jun 1827 in Dundee (from fam. trees)
Ann 1829 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XYNB-251 - wrong age though  :-\ for 1851

Not sure if I am off on a tangent though...along with other researchers who have made the same links to this possible surname for Jane  :-\
