Hi Norrie,

Apologies if I haven't posted this correctly, this is my first time on the site.

I read with interest, the information you have on Lochgelly cemetery, and wondered if you have photo's of a Walterina Cormack Brown (Died 1941) and James Martin (Died 1946) these were my grandparents and also of Euphemia Fraser Robbin (Died 1971) and Walter Brown Martin (Died 1990) these were my Auntie and Uncle, and Walter was Walterina and James's son.

Any help would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

Bryan

Hi Norrie,

Thanks for checking that out for me. I'll have try and find out where James and Walterina are buried, I always thought it was Lochgelly.

The others you mentioned are not related in anyway.

Would you be able to send me a photo of Walter and Euphemia?

Thanks again for taking the time to get back to me, much appreciated.


Cheers


Bryan

I'm interested in seeing the headstone for this ancestor of mine if you have it:
Euphemia Swinley (born Cairns), born 10th May, 1811, died in Lochgelly 3rd Feb, 1865
And also anyone who is clearly related to her.

I'm also interested in any Hynd family inscriptions you have.

Thanks!

Thanks for the gravestone picture, Norrie!  That's great  :)

The Hynd people I know of in my tree are:

David Hynd and Margaret Bett
Henry Hynd and Helen Adam
Alexander Hynd and Amelia Geddes

but I think they were from Dunfermline.
