Moray (Elginshire) / Places to visit
« on: Wednesday 10 August 16 13:36 BST (UK)  »
Hi All,

I have rented a cottage in Keith for a week and intend to visit places where my forebears were born/married/died or mentioned in censuses, I would appreciate any thoughts/pointers any posters can provide to help me along the way.

I have events in Archiestown, Knockando, Abelour, Rothes, Grange, Cawdor, Lumsden, Auchindoir, Forres, Elgin, New Machar and probably more places that I can't remember at the moment.

TIA

George

East Lothian (Haddingtonshire) / Dunbar Cemeteries
« on: Sunday 07 August 16 17:20 BST (UK)  »
My grandfather died in 1958 and as far as I know was buried in a Dunbar Cemetery.

In Loving Memory of
Joseph Smith
beloved husband of
Grace Hutton
Died 10th March 1958

I have a photograph (taken in the early 90s by an uncle  from Australia) of the headstone but without knowing the cemetery I am unable to visit myself.

Does anyone know of a site where I can search for the cemetery?
(I have tried Scottish Burials and Billion graves and come up with nothing)

Thanks & Regards

East Lothian (Haddingtonshire) / Beltonford Maltings, West Barns Dunbar
« on: Sunday 07 August 16 10:12 BST (UK)  »
Hi All,

I'm looking for any information/photographs for Beltonford Maltings.

My grandfather worked there in the early 1950s, I have a couple of photographs but they are only in front of the entrance to the managers house and don't give any real location information.

I know the Maltings were next door to the stables on Edinburgh Road, and that the place is now occupied by a self storage business, but I would really like to get information/photographs of the house in the 1950s.

TIA

George J. Smith
