Szac, may I accept your kind offer?
I am searching for the resting place of John McCREADIE (b. 13 July 1848, Ballantrae d. 02 Aug 1879).
At 9PM, 02 Aug 1879, John died on board Ayr Harbour No. 1 tug boat, crushed to death under the lever of the (steam) engine. He and his family, widow Margaret (m.s. NELSON) and three children (Jane, Isabella and John), were living at 8 Allison Street, Newton [now Newton-on-Ayr].
I am unable to locate his burial; Ayr or Ballantrae. The practice of the time was burial in the Parish of Birth, in this instance Ballantrae.

Many thanks Szac
If they were McCREADIEs buried in Ballantrae, somewhere down my line they belong. If I send you a PM with my personal e-mail address would you be so kind and forward the ones you located.

Thanks

Hi Szac, can I also accept your offer.
I also have an interest in McCREADIE in Ballantrae. Also I'd be intereested in any PEEBLES that may be there - I descend from the marriage of James PEEBLES and Jane/Jean McCREADIE and they have children born in the Ballantrae area.
TIA

Sorry for the delay of answering my posts! Are you still looking for these MI's? There are several Coulters and one Aird, no Jess.
