Hi Norrie, Amazing you have been doing this for so long. Many thanks from Down Under !!
I am searching for  Alexander Hutton, his wife Isabella (Alexander) Hutton.
Several offspring I wont look for now.
They were married in 1829 in Kinghorn but children born in Kirkcaldy.
If you can find any Huttons or Alexanders in your records it may help my search.
Very grateful to you for looking!

Thanks for looking Norris.
I found a record for Captain Alexander Hutton who was apparently harbour master at Kirkcaldy at some stage, and one address was Marine cottage.
Might have been buried elsewhere.
More digging.
Thanks,
Eileen

Hi I am new to this forum and am looking for any assistance in finding the grave of my Great great great grandmother Helen(Lindsay) Sutherland. Her death certificate says she died 28th July 1879 and she was buried in Pathhead Dysart.  I have searched around the graveyards here but cannot find any sign of her. Does anyone have any links to how I can locate her grave ?

Hi Andy I have photos of the headstones in Pathhead Cemetery and there is not one for Helen

 the lair registers for Pathhead only up to1847 but before that there were a number of Lindsay Burials tell me who were Helens parents ? should have been on Death Certificate

willl check to see if they are buried there

Hi Norrie, 

I'm looking for any Gilmour (Gilmer etc) headstones in Kirkcaldy, more likely Dysart please. Have you noticed anything on your travels? Nothing specific, though the older the better (1800s). I was going to head down but it would save me a journey.

My research is fairly complete, hence not looking for anything specific. It may help tie some loose ends or reveal unknown people that I am unaware of. Doesn't need to be a Gilmour headstone. The wife could be one someone else headstone.

The proximity could be important with related people in the next bed or side of larger stones - though I could do this myself if there's anything.

I've had a look on FindAGrave site and nothing really comes up for Gilmour of Kirkcaldy area even though there were many circa 1700-1900, more so Dysart area. (Helen Gilmour / David Nelson on that site of Abbotshall is no connection. Believe she was Dunfermline or outside Fife).

I am aware of Gilmour's in particular Burntisland and Markinch but these are a different tribe. Everything seems very concentrated to each area. There is nothing as of yet to connect them. If would go back before the 1700s if it did.
