Thanks, Harry. As the gamekeeper was a bachelor, it won't be the papa of my Humphrey Paterson (whose dad was Humphrey also). It looks as though the Moffats reigned supreme, if the gamekeeper and 'master' (that wouldn't be the owner, I don't think) were both of that name...a case of nepotism perhaps!!
It's a bit tough, this one. I think, as I said, I'll make it my 'go-to' place on our next visit to Scotland...it will be interesting to travel around the places mentioned in my records of the family and go grave-hunting once again (and this time, Himself won't be able to grumble too much as it will be HIS family we're looking for!).
I'll consider this closed now...thank you all for your usual help and guidance.
