Hello Margaret

John & Elizabeth are buried in Section Z Lair 60 in Burngrange Cemetery.  I've a photograph, the headstone also commemorates their son John who was killed in action in France in 1917.  I've attached the photo
Cheers ... Meg

Ps wouldn't allow the attached photo is too large, email me offlist and I'll send it.

Hello Margaret,

James & Christina Doyle buried in Section O, Lair 30 in Burngrange, on Christina's burial record it states "born Ireland".  no headstone I'm afraid.    I'm in the middle of painting my livingroom, and up and down ladders tonight, will send photo tomorrow of the Fordyce headstone..

cheers ...  Meg
