Hi NorrieG,
I was browsing and found your post about the McQueen family in Dunfermline Cemetery.  That's the family I'm looking for!!  If you have any photos you can share I would really appreciate it.  I'm also looking for another family member Robert Morris McQueen maybe you could help me out.

Thank you for any help that you can provide  ;)
