Never used it - for MI's best to contact the Scottish Family History Society or the Family History Societies for  individual areas  Borders FHS, West Lothian FHS, etc

MI's records are usual published by the FHS' and complied by volunteers

the FHS' usually have research facilities

each areas resource can vary - dependent on what info you require

Remember not all burials have a stone - can be best to check the local authority lair/burial records

Which cemetery is it?

What was the year of death?
