Dunlichity churchyard

[alexena]

I have a photo of a headstone in Dunlichity churchyard taken a few years ago. It is in memory of Malcolm Mackintosh who died in 1920 and his wife Isabella Shaw died in 1938, both of Duneside, Daviot and also their son John who died in 1985. There were several smaller headstones alongside but were too badly eroded to read the inscriptions. Is there any way I can find out who they belong to as I feel they may be close family relatives?

Hi Alexena

I've got a book of pre-1855 monumental inscriptions that includes Dunlichity. I'd be happy to do a few look ups for you.

Best wishes

Hi Lynn,

Thanks for your helpful offer. My records just go back as far as Malcolm's father - William Mackintosh who was married to Elisabeth McPherson 29th July 1841. I don't have any deaths prior to 1855. I understand some of Malcolm and Isabella's children died in infancy and I thought perhaps the headstones were theirs. Isabella's parents were Donald Shaw and Christine McGillivray. Let me know if you find any Mackintosh's.

Hi there,  I have information on the Mackintosh/Shaw family tree, which is linked to Shaw/McGillivray.  Also, Lynn, I have McTavish in my tree too, have you ever come across Tavish McTavish in yours?  Look forward to hearing from you both.
Regards
Lynn. :-)

Do you know if there are any burial records for the area of Daviot and Dunlichity, for people buried without headstones?

I would love to find out where my great-grandmother is buried.

She died on 20 May 1906 at Elrig, Daviot and Dunlichity, at the age of 79 years. She was known by the name, Marjory Grant, although she was born illegitimate, to Catherine McPherson.

Catherine also died at Elrig, on 26 March 1875, at the age of 80 years.
