MI's for Kirkmaiden, Stoneykirk and Kirkmadrine

[Ruskie]

Hi beenie/beanie

What a kind offer.

Do you by any chance have any Blains? If so, I will dig out my names as I do not want to put you to the trouble of transcribing any which may not be relevant.

Thanks

Thank you very much Beenie - I will dig out my names and digest all this information. Much appreciated. (The Hannay name rings a bell  ).

Hey Trish, it might be better if Tom started a new thread - this IS beanies after all  .

H Ruskie,

I'm sure that I recall a certain lady writing that she didn't think that anyone had a Copyright on a specific thread!    Is this what they mean when they say that it's a lady's privilege to change her mind?

Best wishes,


Tom.

I'm afraid you've lost me there Tom

Hi Beannie,

Referring to Reply #7 dated Saturday, 5th July. Correct me if I'm wrong, but surely it did commence with the words, "Hi Tom, Here are the MI's in Stoneykirk Cemetery". Naturally enough, I am absolutely delighted with the thoroughness of your work and the friendliness in which you carried it out. I see no complaints from you, so, one has to wonder what all the fuss is about by someone who really ought to know better.

Because of your kindness and your response to another researcher who is looking at Janet McGill, the wife of David Blain, I thought it may be helpful to other researchers if I supplied some further information on the family
