I don't live in Wick and really don't know it.  I have been looking for maps but nothing so far. I kinda know the general area but not the streets.
From the names of some of the shops, I can hopefully pick out relevant house numbers for photos.

Now I just googled this - Breadalbane Terrace, Wick streetmap
I don't know if you do it you'll get the same result but theres a number of properties shown which must be real close to your numbers.

When I get a suitable map, I'll let you know.

Meantime, I've posted your query on - http://www.british-genealogy.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=244

  More than I was hoping for James, great stuff. I also followed the thread you posted on the British-Genealogy Forum, and saw numerous names that are connected. So of course I signed up there too. You folks have been very kind to a novice.
  Of course, I still have to find out where old Murdoch and family are buried, but that might have to wait until tomorrow. I do have a bit of info overload ;)
  Many thanks,
       Steve

Hi Steve
Have checked the MI's for Wick Old Cemetery and couldn't find him or Christina. I also checked Canisbay with no luck.

  Thanks for checking for me. I am at a loss as to where this family could be buried. I have two different Rosie families that merged through marriage, and they have to be somewhere. I am still fairly sure that if I can find one or two, I will find many more.
   I appreciate your help.

I don't know much about Wick's cemeteries therefore thought maybe a message on here might be handy -

It's possible perhaps that they are buried there but there was no trace of the stone etc when the indexes were being compiled.
Perhaps there are burial records somewhere that might help?

If they aren't in the MI's , does anyone have any suggestions on what I can pursue from here. I checked the stat. death records that I had for Murdoch and Christina, and they just list Breadalbane Terrace, Pultneytown. No other info is given.
  Thanks,
