Yes, I've seen the actual headstone, and I think I've also seen a photo of it on the forum. I said that the David Spink who drowned in 1814 was my 3 x great-grandfather, but I should have said 4 x. It was his son David who drowned in 1836 who was my 3 x great-grandfather.

There are some new pictures of St Vigeans at http://www.geograph.org.uk/gridref/NO6342
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.
