Robert Irving 1749.
« on: Tuesday 21 March 17 09:26 GMT (UK) »
I have a Robert Irving 1749 unknown where he was born but died 11/10/1823 in Upper Denby/Denbie.
Does anyone know if this is in Dumfriesshire? Unfortunately no idea his family. Was married to a Isabella Burnet who also died the same place! They had two boys William and Martin (who've I've got so far) who were born Kirkpatrick Fleming??

Whilst there is an Upper Denby in West Yorkshire, I can see a Denbie in Dumfries

If you pan off to the right and down slightly, you should see Kirkpatrick Fleming too.

From what documents have you gleaned the death date/location?

I found a gravestone with information on it in Dalton.
