I think you would be better off getting your topic moved to the Scotland board county of Aberdeenshire.

If you click on the report to moderator (in blue) at the bottom right hand corner of your page, you can request that it be moved.

There is a rootschatter on that board who also lives in Australia and has made a similar request to you.  That has generated 353 reads and two pages of responses which is a good response.

If you are not certain of how to ask for your topic to be moved, I shall be happy to do so for you.

Thanks for your reply Girl Guide.
I have asked for the thread to be moved to the Aberdeenshire boards. Hopefully I can get some hits there.

If nothing materialises on here - you could create your own memorial page and request a photograph on FIND A GRAVE

How to submit a photograph request.

Hi, If you PM me your e-mail address, I will send you a couple of photographs. Although affected by age and lichen, the stone is still quite legible.
