Rosskeen Burial Records for Joyce or Joice and Devina Prior

[Jintz]

I am looking for burial records in Rosskeen for Joyce possibly spelt Joice (aged 22) and her sister Devina (aged 16), daughters of James Prior, gamekeeper and Mary Waugh.  Their father registered their deaths although I don't know if they lived with him as he was in England for both the 1861 and 1871 census.

Joyce died in 1865 and Devina 1866 both living in Invergordon Mains.

I would appreciate any help available either with the information or advice as to where the information can be found.

Thank you in anticipation.

Hi Lorna,

Just to let you know that Mrs Ross was not able to help as quote: 

"Our burial ground record for Rosskeen only go back to 1904.  Over the years there have been several holders of these records and I presume some have got lost or not handed over in entirety."

It was worth a try anyway.
