Moray Monumental Inscriptions
« on: Friday 12 January 07 18:54 GMT (UK) »
Thought i should post this terrific site.

The Aberdeen and North-East Scotland family History Society
 have transcribed and indexed a lot of Monumental Inscriptions in  the Moray Area
these are searchable by parish or surname.

KANE/ MCGEOWN/ MALONE/ MCCULLOCH/ MCDOUGALL/ FERGUSON

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
