« on: Saturday 28 May 22 16:02 BST (UK) »

I have a Robert Crozier buried in the Churchyard in 1857 and his 2 sons in 1858 and 1859, their cert just say Newcastleton.
 Please enlighten me...

Sorry, I can't provide any enlightenment, but to add another clue in the hope that someone else can, there is currently an In Memoriam card on eBay for Isabella Nichol, died 12-Mar-1917 age 65, wife of Matthew Nichol. It says she died at 24 North Hermitage Street, Newcastleton, and was interred on 16th March 1917 at Castleton Churchyard: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/275662793328
I can't find her or Robert Crozier on Find a Grave or billiongraves.

Castleton is the parish and survived as a village until 1793 when Newcastleton was created by the Duke of Buccleuch.  Robert Crozier is in Castleton graveyard. 

Saughtree if the more modern graveyard from 1861 and is 6 miles northeast of Newcastleton.  There is also Ettleton graveyard from 1708 all in the same parish

Women are usually buried under their maiden name so Isabella Nichol is buried under Purdom in Castleton.  Matthew Nichol died in Florida in 1921 aged 79 years. 

Liddesdale monumental inscriptions are available at the Scottish Genealogy Society but we have the books in our Archive at Borders Family History Society
