The Common Room / Calkenfoot, Scotland
« on: Monday 18 December 17 16:59 GMT (UK)  »
Hello

I am trying to find two places: Calkenfoot and Bonese, Bonnies, Boneese, Westerkirk. This 2nd place is spelled 3 different ways on several different Tombstones/Obits so I don't know which spelling is correct.  All related to Thomson family members in Westerkirk, Dumfrieshire (Dumfries and Galloway now).

"Also Agnew Dalgleish, his wife, who died at Calkenfoot, March 21st, 1877, aged 32 years." 

Cemetery is: Westerkirk Churchyard, Bentpath, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland.  I know Bentpath is just a short distance from Westerkirk Parish Church, in Dumfries and Galloway.

"He died on 13 Feb 1837 in Bonnies, Westerkirk, Dumfries."

"THOMSON, Bridget b: May 8, 1809 in Boneese, Westerkirk, Dumfries. Scotland."

"He died on 11 May 1872 in Bonese, Westerkirk, Dumfries. He was buried in Westerkirk, Dumfries."

Because I can't seem to find a place called Calkenfoot, Scotland I'm thinking it may be the individual name of a farm or croft.  But they make Boneese sound like a town.

Any suggestions for Calkenfoot or Boneese?

Thank you,
Beverly

Banffshire / Glack, Kirkmichael, Banffshire, Scotland

I am trying to find information on a town called Glack.  The address I have says Glack, Kirkmichael, Banffshire, Scotland.  I have found Kirkmichael and Banffshire but I can not find anything of Glack.  Has anyone ever heard of this town?  Is it now incorporated into another larger town?

Banffshire / Cemetery in Keith, Banffshire, Scotland

Hello

I am trying to find the Cemetery in Keith, Banffshire, Scotland.  I have that it is called simply, Keith Cemetery, but when I try looking it up under that name all I find is the Keith Cemetery in Keith, Moray, Scotland.  Does the Cemetery in Keith, Banffshire have a different name?

Another ancestor is supposedly buried at the Keith Old Cemetery in Keith, Banffshire, not sure if it is the same cemetery as I mentioned above or if there are 2 cemeteries in Keith, Banffshire.

Thank you in advance for your help
