Hello,
perhaps somebody could help me locate a grave or death record for Cunningham Rae born about 1750 - 1755 and his wife Agnes Duncan born about 1752
According to latter day saints they married 12 OCT 1777 Kirkcudbright, Kirkcudbright, Scotland.
I have seen a couple of trees online which suggest Agnes Duncan's parents are John Duncan and Isobel Ross, but never any source which confirms it
Agnes was still alive in 1841 but definitely dead by 1858, as both she and Cunningham Rae are listed as deceased on their daughter Catherines death certificate [she married Andrew Beattie]
Cunningham is listed as a Tailor, Catherine was born in 1805 when Agnes must have been in her 50s
They seem to have had the following children
James Rae
William Rae 1775 - 1875
Margaret Rae Abt 1777
Janet Rae Abt 1789 - 1875
Euphemia Rae 1797 - 1864
Catherine Rae 1805 - 1858
William Rae married Margaret McKune and had a son Cunningham Rae born 1811, along with a few others
Euphemia married John Stevenson and also had a son Cunningham along with a few others
in 1841 Agnes was living with William and Margaret in Portmary Rerrick Kirkcudbright, but is not listed on Williams Headstone in Rerrick Cemetery
the headstone has the following inscription
In memory of Margaret McKune, spouse of William Rae, who died at Port Mary, Burnfoot, 9th February 1864, aged 93 years. Also William Rae her husband, who died at Burnfoot, 19th Feb’y 1874, aged 101 years. Also the daughter-in-law Sarah Murtrie, wife of David Rae, who died at Burnfoot, 14th Nov 1881, aged 73 years. The said David Rae, died at Burnfoot, 28th Dec 1891, aged 88 years. Also Margaret Hope Rae, daughter of the said William Rae, who died at Burnfoot, 2nd June 1903, aged 93 years. Also Elizabeth Rae, died at Dalbeattie, 26th August 1915, aged 72 years. “They rest from their labours”.
Any help gratefully reecived
