Kinloss Abbey Cemetery
« on: Sunday 10 August 08 18:30 BST (UK) »
While I was in Findhorn in May this year I took a trip around Kinloss  Abbey Cemetery, as some family are buried there, I took several Photographs, (of headstones), there are a lot of the following name Masson,  Allan, Wright,  but also Storm Whyte, Riach, Cowper, Main, Riddle Sutherland, and more, I have just sat and put the names on them instead of the image number for to make it easier to view them by name,

If anyone has family buried there and would like me to see if i have a photo of there ancestors headstone , and I would be more than happy to forward  it to them , if I do have a photo, Just let me know the details and i will look and see if i have it.

Hi Sybil,
A very small part of my mum's family come from Morayshire, some in Elgin which is a bit far away from Kinloss but I don't know where / when most of them died.

If you have the time, could you have a look at your photos for:
Alexander Sutherland
Isabella Sutherland (nee Robb)
William Anderson
Helen or Elizabeth Anderson (nee Grant)
John, Helen or Mary Anderson

No idea when they died but all born 1770 to 1790s approximately - I've not been able to find any of their deaths on SP so assume they died before 1855.

Thanks for your time.

Thanks Sybil.

If you get a result I'll buy you AND Ann a Laphroaig at the Glesca Meet.
(maybe I should just buy a bottle and some straws :P)

Thanks for looking.
I'm clutching at straws anyway.
I'll still buy you a drink.

Hi Sybil,

I am very interested in any information about Wrights and Massons in that graveyard.

Thanks
