Hi Jean Jeanie,
Do you have an MI for an Isabella Gardner m/s Laing, born Rafford, Elginshire 14/3/1795. She married John Matthew Gardner 1830 in Bo'ness.
In 1841 and 1851 they had a Pub on North Street, Bo'ness but both are gone by 1861.
Regards, Alastair

Hi Alastair

Good news and bad news.

There is an MI in Bo'ness Church Wynd Lower which could be her. Unfortunately the stone is very badly flaked and the only words visible are as follows:-

wife, Isabella Laing. Eldest son John ?.5. 1836. 4 children.

Best wishes
Jean

Hi Jean,
That must be the right headstone. They had a son John baptized 25/12/1831 who was not with them in 1841 so the 1836 date must be his death. Also, including this John they had four children. Pity about the rest of the inscription though.
Many thanks for your time and trouble doing the look-up for me. Much appreciated.
Regards, Alastair

Hi Donna

Good news and bad news.

There is an MI for a John Henderson in Bo'ness Church Wynd Lower.

Unfortunately the only inscription is his name. No dates or others with him.

May or may not be yours  :(

Best wishes
Jean

Hi ,
I am looking for James Donaldson and his wife Janet Marshall who died in Bathgate pre 1855 .
 There may also be a son Thomas who died in infancy in the same lair.
Could you please check to see if they are listed in the MI's.
Many Thanks
Lizanne
