Great stuff!

But be aware that it doesn't have 100% coverage yet. It doesn't, for instance, have Tomnahurich, which is the main cemetery in Inverness, and it doesn't have New Elgin, which is the biggest cemetery in Elgin.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

If it's before 1978/9, try http://libindx.moray.gov.uk/mainmenu.asp

Sorry I havn't been down as far as Buckie as yet, maybe sometime in the future!

(but I do have a fair amount from Tomnahurich)

You've got a big job ahead of you - more strength to your elbow.
