I have a copy of Clackmannanshire M.I.'s and I'll try and have a look for John Erskine over the next few days after Christmas.

Jan,

I have looked at the Central Scotland FHS index to Alloa burials, and I am afraid there is no reference to any John Erskine.   This index relates to names appearing in the Church records for the parish (for instance for the hire of the mortcloth), and the number of entries is quite small.

It could still be that there is a gravestone record in the M.I.'s which maddymoss is going to look at for you.

David.

Hi,

Sorry, but there is no record of your John Erskine in Clackmannanshire M.I.'s.

A direct ancestor of mine, Charles Hutton died in Alloa in 1863. His death cert by a neighbour lists his mother as Erskine although his birth mother was Dobson. There may be a good reason that Erskine is listed and as he was born in 1818 it may well be something to do with this Erskine line in the area.
