Hello Again Gem
I have had major computer problems but got back in time to get a copy of James Parker Gilmour`s headstone. Following on from that I have found Douglas Meek (husband of James Parker`s daughter Marion Catherine) was born 16 May 1895 and died in Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Texas on Jan. 19th 1967 His full name being Douglas Mcintyre Meek.
There is also a mystery regarding James Parker`s sister May Miller Gilmour she seems to have been married twice Firstly to James Pullar Bissett(b 20 Sept 1849 Monifieth ,Angus) marriage 25 Oct 1872 they had one daughter Jemima Gilmour Bissett ( b 23 Jan 1874 Anstruther Wester) then on the 3 Aug 1877 in Edinburgh she married William McLachlan (b 12 Jul 1856 Edinburgh) and they had 2 children I have found so far Jane Birrell McLachlan (b 30 Apr 1878 Anstruther) and Anne May McLachlan (b 29 Feb 1880 Anstruther). I have not been able to find a death for James Pullar Bissett so its a bit of a puzzle
