I have found the deaths of some Grahams in TUNDERGARTH Parish (FHL microfilm 1067971) to whom I MAY be related because the timing is right and I know the family had connections there. I would appreciate it if anyone is able to tell me any more about the following people:
William Graham of Peatstackdale interred 23 May 1820 age 76 (=> born 1743)
James Graham of Peatstackdale interred 10 Feb 1820 age 73 (=> born 1746)
Margaret Graham of Peatstackdale interred 9 Jan 1813 age 32 (=> born 1780)
also Agness Byers of Banks died 22 Aug 1836 (no age given)
MY INTEREST? My 3rd GGrandfather James Graham (1771-1855) had parents William Graham and Agnes Byers according to his 1855 death registration. This registration shows a longterm connection to Lambhill in Tundergarth parish. I know nothing more about William Graham. No birth or marriage info. My Agnes B was born in 1742 in Westerkirk, so this is the only William G in Tundergarth who would be about the right age to be her husband. An age for Agness at death would have helped confirm or reject these people as related, but alas ...
The William and James here look like brothers while Margaret could be a daughter to one of them.
Information anyone?
