Hi I have the MI's for Caputh if anyone wants a look-up, Cheers Evelina
-
Hi Evelina,
Would you look for a John S(c)later for me. I have no idea when he died though, and also a Janet Gardner, maybe sometime around 1850.
Many Thanks
Anne
p.s. John was a quarryman.
-
Hi Anne, Will send you a PM.
-
Hi Evalina,
Thank you for the info. I am not sure if these are mine, I will have to look at Johns siblings again. Alexander is certainly the right time frame.
Regards
Anne.

Evelina,
I hope your offer is still valid after these few months. My elusive ancestor was Rev James Taylor who according to the family Bible was the father of Marjory Taylor. The only wife/ mother I could find was Isabel Taylor [nee Steel] who might have died in childbirth in 1786 at Caputh? Could you look for her OR a wife of James Taylor who would have died after 1786?
Thanking you
Beth
Hi I have the MI's for Caputh if anyone wants a look-up, Cheers Evelina
-
Hi Beth, Sorry nothing under Steel or Taylor. Does not mean they are not there just no MI or to worn to read. Evelina
-
Elevina,
Thank you sooo much for taking the time to help me out. I'll keep looking....
Have you been to Caputh? Beautiful place, however I wish the stones could talk!
Beth
-
Hi Beth, I have not been to Caputh yet. But most of Perthshire is lovely so I look forward to seeing it. A lot of my Porter side are from Stanley and Perth itself.
The Caputh people are an offshoot, the 'Chalmers' married into the Porters.
Cheers Evelina
-
Hi Evalina
Again if the offer is still on I wonder if you would be good enough to check out McGregors/McGrigors who were buried in Caputh Graveyard. The family I am particluarly interested in are an Archibald McGregor who I believe died on 23 Jun. 1861. His wife was Isabella Watson though I do not yet know when she died. His parents were a Robert McGrigor (died 24 Jan 1820) and his wife Janet McDonald (died 28 Sep 1814). Any info of any sort would be most valuable.
I did visit the actual cemetery a couple of weeks ago but I could not see any stones with that name (though I did not have much time to look).
Thanks in advance

Hi Robert,
Found this:-
1832 - Sacred to the memory of Robert McGrigor who died in Caputh 24th January 1820 aged 83 years, and Janet McDonald, his spouse, who died 28 th September 1814 aged 68 years, and their son John McGrigor, Mason, Caputh who died 16th November 1936 aged 57 years.
Nothing on Archilbald or Isabella sorry. Cheers Evelina.
-
Evelina - thank you very much for your prompt reply.
I had hoped to find an Archibald McGregor due to fact his death cert states he died in the Parish of Caputh on 23 Jun. 1861. His daughter also died in Caputh in 1871 and I thought there may have been a family grave there.
Alas I will continue with my investigations.
Thanks again.
Robert

Hi Evelina,
I was hoping to find my ancestor Gows' in the Little Dunkeld MI which I purchased but not much luck.........any chance you can check for Gows in Caputh graveyard....namely William, Agnes, John, Jean, James, Isabella and David?
Much appreciation
Gary
-
Hi Gary, None of the names you mentioned in Caputh. There is a Charlotte,,wife of John Cameron; Catherine, wide of James McLaren; Daniel; Alexander & an Ann, wife of John Chalmers.
If any are yours let me know and I will give you the full inscription.
Cheers Evelina
-
Hi Evelina,
thanks so much for that.......so now I can eliminate Caputh for the Gows' but could I please trouble you for one more lookup........"Millars".......David, William, Robert and Agnes?
Much appreciated
Gary
-
Hi Gary - Millar
DAVID Millar died 1880 at Hillocks of Clunie late of Nether Kincairney aged 80. Wife Janet Robertson Millar.
Only one to match the names you mentioned. If he is yours again let me know and i will send the full inscription.
A few Miller's too, could be yours if the spellings changed at all. A notable one is Robert Miller Schoolmaster of Caputh died 1904 aged 84. Born Halkirk, Caithness.
Cheers Evelina
-
Hi Evelina,
Thanks so very much for your trouble, but alas these "Millars" don't match the ones I'm looking for........but at least I can eliminate Caputh as there final resting place. The search goes on.
Regards
Gary
-
Sorry Gary - just realised that Evelina had answered your query. It is certainly a puzzle as there are not many churches in the area - I really thought they would be at Caputh. An unmarked grave perhaps? Do you know if your family had links with other villages in the area?

Hi Evelina
I guess that confirms I am looking in the right the correct cemetery, that memorial will be to the casualties from the area and I would expect to find a family gravestone in the cemetery (not a CWGC stone) otherwise I would have found the CWGC stones.
Thanks for the info I guess I can make a return visit next time I am at our house in Fife.
Kind Regards
Alec

-
Evalina,
Is your offer still valid? If so, I am looking for an MI for Andrew Stirton and Mary Hewiss. I believe he was born about 1740, but I don't know his death date. If you could provide anything that would be great. Thanks.
Dan
-
Hi Dan, I do have this although looks like he was born c1722.:-
This is inscribed by Andrew Stirtan, in Inchtuthil, Farmer, to the memory of his wife Mary Harris. She was born in 1729 & died May 18th 1796 aged 67, also to the memory of their son Zabulon who died the first year of his age. Here lies the remains of Andrew Stirtan late farmer in Inchtuthil, he died 14th July 1816 in the 94th year of his age.
Another Andrew died aged 2 in 1784. son of George Stirton & Margaret Scott.
Another Andrew died in infancy, parents james Stirton and Ann kennedy. No. date but parents died 1848 & 1866.
No Hewiss though. Evelina
-
Apologies Phillipa, Just spotted your post. No trace of rest but found this:-
Erected by Donald Dow and Susan Robertson, his wife, Craig of Stenton, in loving memory of their sons Donald, pte. 4/5 Black Watch, died of wounds received in action 20th February 1919 aged 36 years, Thomas died in Edinburgh 21st June 1920 aged 36 years, and are both interrred here, Alexander died in Ballinluig 8th march 1923 aged 35 years, the above Donald Dow died 30th Sept. 1929 aged 79 years and his wife Susan Robertson died 28th may 1931 aged 82 years, Annie Dingwall wife of the above Thomas Dow died 8th March 1968 aged 87 years. Cheers Evelina
-
Evelina,
Thank you so much. I just reviewed something earlier tonight that confirmed Andrew might have been born in 1722. So much for going by memory. I guess Hewiss could be Harris, I was going by a reference in a book. Now here is the kicker. In 1990 I visited Scotland (I live in Canada) and toured some cemeteries looking for Stirton inscriptions. I only found one and it had a bizarre name on it ... Zabulon. The inscription you gave me is the only one I actually have recorded. I really need to check my old notes. Thanks again.
Dan

Hi Evelina,
Was wondering if you are still doing look ups for Caputh? I have Chalmers there from at least the early 1800's. I also noted that you are also looking at Chalmers! I have a John Chalmers, son of William Chalmers. John must have been born between about 1775-90 and after an apprenticeship from 1803-06 he left Caputh. I was wondering if you had any possible burials for his father or family. They were living in Wester Caputh in 1803.
Thanks
Adrianne
-
Hi Adrianne
I do have William's and John but no John as son of Wm. Do you know the mother's name?
My William Chalmers 1735 born Craigie married Christian Sutor 1760 in Caputh. 5 children I know of 1761 to 1768 Janet, William, Isobvel, George & Agnes. First born Craigie, next 2 Ruffle last 2 Lethendy. But possibley had more children I have no foun d yet.
However there does seem to be another Chalmers family in Caputh about the same time and as yet I have not found a tie in to my ones.
I can look up MI's if you give me a bit more detials.
Cheers Evelina
-
Hi Evelina,
Thanks for your reply!
I'm afraid that's about all I have at the end of that branch. I have info on John as an adult but as to where he was from ... I have his apprenticeship papers from Perth as I mentioned before, which mention "son of William Chalmers in Wester Caputh" and there's a James Chalmers on it paying the stamp duty. That's it. I think I may have come to a dead end :(
I have done some research into Wester Caputh and have found a Chalmers family living there in the early 1800's but I believe my John and William, if related, must be from the previous generation.
Thanks anyway
Adrianne

Hello Evelina,
I am wondering if you would mind looking in the Caputh MI's please, for any persons by the surname BORRIE (also spelt BORRY). I am trying to find the burial place of my ancestors William BORRY and hs wife Marjorie McCRA (aka Margaret or May or Mary McCRAW). They were married in Caputh in 1791. I've not been able to find their year of death or mention of them after 1802 with the birth of their last child, so now I am clutching at straws.
Regards
Barry Howard.
-
Hi Barry, Sorry no William or Majorie in Caputh. Borrie names in Caputh Jessie died 1908 wife of Alexander Robertson. Helen Borrie died 1905 wife of John Melvin. Donald Borrie died 1839, James his son died 1879, his son David died 1879 and Donald's son David died 1885. Margaret Borrie died 1869 wife of William Clark.
Hope some slot into your family, if they do let me know and I will give you full details., cheers Evelyn.
-
Thank you Evelina,
I appreciate the lookup very much. The Borries you mention do not strike a chord with me at this time. Can you tell me if there are MI's for Dunkeld, Little Dunkeld, Dowally and Moneydie? Some of these places are mentioned in the births of my Borrie children. When their three boys grew they moved to the Isle of Mull. They were all gardener's by occupation as was their father William. I have found nothing to suggest the parents went to Mull as well, so I keep looking for them in the Dunkeld area.
Regards,
Barry.
-
Sorry Barry, I don't have the MI's for the other places you mention. Have you tried the Tay Valley Family History Group to see if they have them. Good luck in your quest, cheers Evelina.
-
Hi Evelina
I am looking for any Allan or Scott.
An earlier post mentioned an Ann Scott, wife of a J.D. Allan, who I believe are my great great grandparents. I expect there might be a few Allans and more than one Scott though.
Thanks in advance

Richard

There were also daughters Elizabeth and Margaret. Daughter Susan married a Dow. Thanks Jem
Yes I have info on the Robertsons at Craig of Stenton at Caputh and also on descendants of Richard B who went to New Zealand. Also I have info on Daughter Susan who married a Dow.
-
Yes I have info on the Robertsons and the Dows (not to hand at the moment) from Caputh.
I'm new to this though!
-
I am trying to find missing information i.e. birth and marriage extracts or census information to try and link my ancestor James Scott born 26th February 1764 in Caputh with the Gravestone of John Skoots wife Mary Suter (died February 1662) which is embedded in the Caputh Churchyard wall. In 1990 I researched the family with my mother at the General Register Office in Edinburgh but only found records as far back as James's extract of birth.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank You

Hi Mike
The Parish records for Caputh only cover the following:

Hi Bruce, thanks for the reply. I'd like to go back as far as 1670. Is there a way to access the parish records online or is there someone I can contact?
Cheers Mike

Hi Evelina
I was wondering if you had any MIs for Hutton or Hardie in Caputh.
Thanks
Pauline
-
Hi Pauline, Only one Hardie. Christina Hardie:- Inscription:- James Robertson died 20th April 1897 aged 78 Years also Christina Hardie, his wife who died at Haugh-End 22nd Jan. 1900 aged 78 years.
If this is yours, let me know their is a bit about 3 of their children.
Hutton to follow. Cheers Evelyn
-
Thank you Evelyn I don't think she's mine but this part of the family is still a work in progress. Are any of the children called Peter?
Pauline
-
Hi Pauline, - Hutton.
1) Elizabeth Matthew Hutton died 1946 aged 70 & husband Peter Cummings.
2) William Hutton died 1863 aged 84 & wife Margaret Cameron. Also Emily Hutton died 1904 aged 65.
3)William Hutton died 1891 aged 83 and wife Elizabeth McLagan.
If any of these are yours let me know and I will post full inscriptions, cheers Evelyn
-
Once again thank you. I think that William Hutton died 1863 is a possible brother for my 4x great grandmother, May Hutton. Could you post the full inscription for this one please. I have possible births for May, John, William and Joseph who were the children of Joseph Hutton.
Pauline
-
Hi Pauline, No Peter Hardie, children were James, Betsy and Andrew.
1863 - In memory of William Hutton who died at Stenton 10th Jany. 1863 aged 84 years, also his wife Margaret Cameron who died at Stenton 19th Jan. 1865 aged 80 years, also Emily Hutton who died at Birnam on the 15th Dec. 1904 aged 65.

Does anyone have any information about Elizabeth Whigham Robertson born Caputh 1843, daughter of Donald and Margaret Robertson, brother Richard Beaumont 1837 left for New Zealand, donald 1846, Alexander O. 1840, Peter 1852, Margaret 1835, Susan 1849 (probably married a Dow) . they lived at Craig of Stenton originally.
Philippa
This may just be a coincidence as you mention Caputh, Dow and Robertson all in one post.
I know of two children of a James Dow and Jean Robertson who lived at Newtyle Farm, Caputh that emigrated to New Zealand in the early 1860s. Cecilia Dow was born in 1838 and married David Hay just before they left. Cecilia's sister, Jean/Jane also came to New Zealand and then married James Payne. I don't know which ship they arrived on or whether they travelled together. Could they be connected to your family?
-
Would there be any Stevensons? I am looking for George born 1793 and William born 1805. The parents were Alexander and Helen and died sometime before 1858.
-
Hi JanetRu, only one Stevenson, believe it or not. Janet Caldwell Stevenson born 1857 died 1941. Cheers Evelina
-
Hi Evelina
Many thanks for checking that, it was much appreciated.
Janet

Hi Evelina,
Could you please look at McLennans (and variants)? I know my wife's gg grandparents Alex McLennan and his wife Christina McDonald have a gravestone there. They died 1911/12. But on my "A&C McLennan" forum it's suggested that bus-operator "Sandy" McLennan, who died 1972, has family gravestone(s) at Caputh. It would be very helpful to know about McLennan MIs at Caputh.
-
Hi Dumork,

Hi there if you are still an active member do you mind looking to see if there are any grave inscriptions for Campbell.
Thank you
It certainly pays to check your old listings information that you discarded in the past can come in very useful a few years down the track.
Thank you

Hi Evelina
Would you mind looking for any McGlashans, in particular Peter. Thanks very much.
