Temple Village Midlothian

Hi Ann,
         I have been in touch with a guy at the Council who has said as long as I can repair the Tablet on site it will be ok, I explained that it was light in weight and would be put back in its proper position the same day.

I will wait until the better weather comes in before I carry out the repair if that is ok with you, I now have the Temple Burial website up and running this is the url for it.

Cheers.

Archie.

hi Archie  on your search round temple churchyard did you come over any Ritchie Family  buried there would be interested   yours Helen

[Templar75]

Hi Helen,

               yes there are three by the name of Ritchie but sadly there are no headstones for them, they are : Walter Ritchie, Lair : 41 a Mrs Ritchie, Lair : 41 and James Ritchie, Lair : 117. Sorry to say other than the Lair number there are no other details except that they died at Temple.

There are Ritchie's buried down by Rosslyn Chapel.

Cheers.

Hello Archie. Is there a designated area for infant burials in Temple graveyard? Sheila Bayne aged 1 month was buried there on 28th July 1927.

I am in Scotland once per year and would visit temple if there is anything to see.

Regards

David Bayne

Hi David,

            I am sorry there are none of what you are looking for and there is no site dedicated for babies, however, if you have other relatives buried there she may be beside them, are you definitely sure she was put in to the Temple ground, do you have a Lair number.

Cheers.

Archie.

Fiona, have a look also at Archie's new site here https://sites.google.com/site/templevillageburials/

He has included so much info there, and it is very easy to look around. I think this is the main list of names on it https://sites.google.com/site/templevillageburials/list-of-names-and-pages
