I've been trying the Edinburgh newspapers for her death in January, 1900 but having no luck.
I still think she would be buried in Edinburgh as she has family there.

I have copies of the Pre-1855 Monumental Inscriptions of the cemeteries in and around Perth.
Any lookups welcome but remember they are pre 1855 (some headstones do have later dates).

1….Aberdalgie – Dupplin – Kirkton o’ Mailer
2….Abernethy
3….Abernyte
4….Aberuthven
5….Arngask
6….Auchterarder – Kirkton
7….Auchtergaven (Bankfoot) – Logiebride


Hello Buckhyne, could you please have a look in your pre-1855 MIs at Auchtergaven for any Scott, Dow, Garvie/Garvey burials?

Any female Garvey/Gavies married to a male Dow?

Any children of William Scott and Ann Dow?

Thankyou WhiteOut7

There are 8 Dow, 6 Garvie and 6 Scott in the MIs for Auchtergaven but none of them connect with each other.
There are no kids of William Scott & Ann Dow and no female Garvie married to a Dow.

Thankyou Buckhyne and Bleckie (BruceL)

I will have a look about Kinclaven might be a clue.
This William Scott and Ann Dow marriage seems to have disappeared into the mists
Odd the one Daughter Helen Dow appears baptised in Auctergaven on Familysearch
And the other child is a William who appears out in New Zealand, parents in death cert
Seems to be driving my friend crazy not finding anything

Hi nsharp, there are 23 maclaren/mclaren and 14 sharp MIs in Greyfriars.
Give me a clue as to who you are looking for.
Spouses names would help

Hopefully I`m not too late for this offer. Do you have any info for the Miller/Millar family from Abernethy? Furthest back I have got is for a Michael Millar. Many thanks, Graham.
