Hi,

Any chance you could look up the names David and Janet Neil?  Thanks for your kind offer.

Hi Welshgirl
No joy, sorry. You don't give any idea of dates. The cemetery is mainly 19th century, as there is a new cemetery outside the village that has been used since then, and there isn't a book for it.
Any Neil or Neill's weren't those first names, sorry

Fairlane,

So very very strange as I am reading these posted messages.  My maiden name was "Muir".  On my father's side my ancestral roots are in Scotland.

My great grandfather was James Muir.  He was born Jan. 6, 1826 in Kilmarnock, Ayreshire, Scotland.  He died Mar. 11, 1910 in Canada.  My great grandmother was Jane Maxwell.  She was born June 2, 1836 in Scotland.  She died Dec/ 18, 1927 in Canada.  Jane was the daughter of Hugh Maxwell.  I do not know her mother's name.

Thought I would pass this on.

Erected by James Hamilton in loving memory of his wife Sarah Lowrie d 11 July 1932 aged 82, also the above James Hamilton d 19 dec 1932 aged 89.
