Many thanks for your reply Norrie.    This is a little earlier than I was looking for BUT the names tie in with my Rae family.   In the meantime I will leave the photo & do some more research into the names you have supplied.   Your help is much appreciated.

Hi Norrie

I'm looking for my great great grandfather John McIntosh, died 6 December 1919, husband of Alice Dryburgh Crichton, who died 3 December 1939. The last known residence of John before his death was in Leslie in 1911, but died in Durie St, Methil in 1919. His wife died in Methil also in 1939. I was wondering if you had any record of them being there? John was originally from Abbotshall, but I thought I'd see if he was in Methilhill, given that I have other relatives (including his daughter Isabella) who died in the Leslie/Glenrothes/Methil area and ended up in there. I can't find a specific thread for Methilhill, so I hope this is ok.

Thanks
