I'm butting in again
(Space isn't a problem here -- just keep typing or type your text in a word processor file and cut and paste it here.)
Just returned home from a morning voluntary duty in D&GFHS Research Centre in Dumfries.
Still not too busy at this time of year, so I had a look for Landsburgh and variations in the rest of Dumfries and Galloway -- found this very old McLandburgh burial in Stoneykirk graveyard in Wigtownshire. Apart from the MIs I provided already for Kirkpatrick Irongray etc. there doesn't appear to be any more in our DGFHS archive. Hope these have been of some use.
(NB: It is quite common in Wigtownshire to drop the Mc from surnames when recording BDMs. Also note that there is a Stranraer and a Perthshire connection recorded in this MI.)
