Have you tried Fife Family History Society?  They have a lot of publications so they might be able to help.  I live nearby so can go take pictures if you are not in a position to visit when you've pinned it down.

Don't you mean Beath Churchyard? (I read that as Kirk of Beath)
Also known as:    Kirk O' Beath,   Beath Old Church

Also on Beath on Findagrave, enter your person's name and it might be here:

Have you tried Fife Council who hold the interment inventory. Their office for this purpose is based at Dunfermline Crematorium. Good luck

Norrie I found the plot from the CD ROM at Kirkcaldy library. How do I find where to go? Speak to gravedigger? Also I assume there is no grave as they cost money?
