Fife / Re: HEADSTONES in Kirkcaldy Cemeteries
« on: Wednesday 18 January 12 11:09 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Norrie
Thank you. I'm interested to find the death record of Alexander to see if he is the son of James Peebles and Margaret Scott. None of the death indexes that I checked seemed to fit. I found he and his wife on the 1881 census at Abbotshall . I was hoping to find his death there.

Their children that I found marriages for were George m 12 Aug 1854 to Janet Turnbull  [they emigrated to New Zealand], Janet m 31 Oct 1857 to William Webster, Robert m 29 Mar 1877 to Ann Watson, Agnes m 24 Nov 1866 to Hugh Mason. James is cited as insane on the 1851 c.

Regards
Annette

Hi Norrie
Could you please check if you have any record of Alexander Peebles bc 1805 and his wife Margaret Davidson.

The last record found  on them was on the 1881 census at Abbotshall, Kirkcaldy with Alexander Peebles aged 74 b Carnbee and his wife aged 69.

I have checked Scotland's People for a record of their death and cannot find them.

Fife / Scoonie Headstone photo
« on: Sunday 18 December 11 12:15 GMT (UK)  »
Recently I obtained a photo of the headstone  at Scoonie of John Peebles d 4.5.1934 aged 81 and his wife Margaret White d 13.8.1936 aged 83.

The problem with the photo is that a large bush is covering most of the headstone which appears to be in quite good condition. Would anyone be able to take another photo without the greenery please.

Regards
Annette

:( Think the only way we can find him, is if I can find him coming into NZ. Problem is I know he arrived on a small fishing boat from Australia, so not sure if records where kept.
Hi
While doing research on Isabella Cunningham and Edward Johnson, I noticed your entries. Isabella and her family did settle in Victoria and she had a married sister, Eliza Susanna Deas Cunningham married to William SYmington who came to Australia c1855. Their family settled at Bacchus Marsh.

I cannot find a definite death for Edward Johnson but Isabella Johnson d 23 Jul 1879 at Hotham. Her will can be downloaded for free at PROVIC wills indexes. Death is in 'Illustrated Australian News,' 30 Aug 1879 [http://trove.nla.gov.au] This is a fantastic Australian newspaper site, free to use.
In her will, it states that she was a widow.She lists her children and Edward is named.  I do have more information on this family but I don't know is this is the one that you are researching.

Canada Lookup Request / Hamilton Cemetery Wentworth County
« on: Saturday 19 November 11 11:31 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone please  help with the details of  Isabella and William Peebles buried at Hamilton Cemetery, Wentworth County.

The reference found is  - cemetery ID 4465, Township, Barton - lot no 19/20

I would like to know their dates of death. The last that I could find on William Peebles was on a border crossing record in the mid 1940's on a visit to his brother in Detroit.

Regards
Annette

I haven't been able to track down a lot of the death dates for the children. It has taken years to find the deaths of William and Margaret.
Did you receive my email re Robert Gillies and Mary Philip Baird ?
