Thanks Audrey.

The reason I was keen to look at this William is, they had a son John who, could have been named after William's father.

Hi there,

Thank you for your reply regarding William Mein.That would be nice if Jean Mein is your GG Grandmother. Jeans father, William Mein who married Janet Gracie, were my GG Grandparents.
They had a daughter Margaret, who is my GGrandmother.

I beleive this is your GG Grandmothers headstone inscription.

Kirkmahoe Churchyard

THOMAS son of William Dalzell who died in Kirkton 8th Decr. 1848 aged 1 year and 8 months. Also JOHN his son who died 10th July 1857 aged 25 years also JOSEPH his son who died 26th April 1858 aged 14 Also JEAN MEAN his spouse who died Novr.21st 1863 aged 61 years Also the above WILLIAM DALZELL who died 16th April 1872 aged 68 years.

Regards,

My mistake, I meant to say he may have worked around Kirkton and not born there. It is possible he worked at the quarry.

Hopefully get back to you soon.
