Hello JoT,
We have the following information - can you possibly confirm it or add to it in anyway?
Forgan
Robert Mackie buried 26/04/1803, Margaret Mackie wife nee Buttercase buried 09/12/1808. Their son James Mackie buried 13/12 1815 but we are not quite sure where, it could be Forgan, Ferryport or Leuchars, & his wife Catherine Mackie nee Smith.

Regards,
Graham

The only Buttercase I could find was at Collessie:
Robert Buttercase tenant Daftmill 5/09/1865 age 59, wife Isabella Dingwall 8/09/1905 age 86, son George 16/06/1848 age 1 year 6 months

Logie
David Forbes buried 18/01/1755

Leuchars
David Smith buried 28/01/1780, Christian Terras nee Hean died 07/05/1803.

We also have a David Sutherland dying as a result of an accident in Blebo Craigs quarry, Kemback 24/01/1895. Would he be buried in Kemback?

Sorry no luck throughout the book for the Forbes, Smith or Sutherland.

Hi Jo T
Would you mind looking to see whether there are any MIs in Kilmany for Robert Paterson and Elspeth Paterson (but could be Margaret Paterson)
Unfortunately I don't have any real idea of time but would guess this could be between 1800-1820 (they would have been born c 1770)
Sorry to be so vague but any help would be much appreciated
Sorry no luck again.
