Hello again Colin,
Some positive information for a change. I spent the morning in the DGFHS Research Centre in Dumfries. DGFHS have published a booklet of MIs for Tinwald and Trailflatt. I’m one of the local volunteers who helps in the running of DGFHS. By pure coincidence I compiled the layout and photographed much of the Tinwald & Trailflatt graveyards.
The MIs listed below, extracted from that booklet confirm that your FERGUSON family members are buried in Tinwald Kirkyard. You will see from the inscriptions listed below that your handwritten lists are more complete. The booklet was published from a survey made in the 1960s and at that time the recorders operated a 100 year rule –
hence no post 1860 inscriptions and the reference “Later inscriptions”
