I have the Statutory Death Record for Robert Jackson born 1773 and died
13 June 1860. In that record it said that the Burial Ground was :New
Burying Ground, Kibarchan.
His parents were Robert Jackson and Janet Jackson, maiden name Spiers.
His wife was Isabella Jackson, maiden name Crawford.
I wondered whether there was anyone local on the list that would be able
to go and look for the gravestone for me and transcribe or take a photo.
Thank you

as you might know on the date you are looking for most people could not afford to buy a headstone . i went to the cemetery today to have a look but it is hard. don't you know the letter they are in like area ( a ) then it would give me a n area to look at as the cemetery is big

I am sorry but I don't know any more detail than I gave. Thank you so much for taking the time to go but as it would appear to be a mammoth task then please don't trouble yourself further. I do really appreciate your help.
Thanks

it was no trouble at all I had to go out that way anyway had another look but there is big spaces where there should be headstones. I am 15 mins away from there and it was a nice day. I am sorry you did not get what you wanted as I said most people could not afford to buy headstones in them days I think it would have been £1 in them days today would be £500 up words. again it was no problem at all.
