There are more names on the tombstone - I'll put them up in a minute 

[Tiana]

Do you have any suggestions on what I could do to find any more info. on Anthony Campbell born 1786 Balmaghie? I have checked Scotlandpeople and can't find anything. What would be my next step?

The stone is close to the church on the side next to the new graveyard.

On the same stone:

Robt. Campbell d. Auchenhay 8 December 1849 in his 9th year.
Geo. Campbell d. Auchenhay 10 June 1851 in his 17th year.

Do you have Anthony's children's names in birth order?

[Tiana]

I have as children

Robert June 1811
Anthony July 17 1817
Mary Campbell March 23 1824

I'm not sure why this is all so very important to me, but it is, and I cannot express my graditude.
