Hi,
Looking for a Monument Inscription lookup please for the above in specifically the Caputh Churchyard. They were married in 1848 at this church, birth and passing dates unknown.
If other info may exist, please don't hold back!
Thank You from Texas!

Hi Joel,
You are in luck .... I am related through marriage to this McKenzie family ... and their Cuthbert descendants via Jane's sister Catherine McKenzie's illegitimate daughter Jessie Pennycook's marriage to George Cuthbert in Caputh in 1867 ... whose eldest son James Cuthbert married my 2nd Cousin 2 times removed Robina Henderson who both emigrated to Watertown, NY, circa 1902. ... and I visited my 4th Cousin John Cuthbert descended from James and Robina in California in 2006 !
Jane (Jean) [McKenzie] BROWN, who was born in Craigie Village Caputh Perthshire on 23 Sep 1824 and married William Brown in 1848, died of Heart Disease in Perth on Feb 17 1888, aged 63. .. informant to the Registrar, son John Brown.
She was already a widow in 1881 Census where she is listed as aged 56 and a retired Inn-keeper.
If you have blood-links to Jane McKenzie, I have hundreds of relatives' data and images for you on my family files.
I will personal message you with my e-mail address.
But I will also try to uncover William Brown's ancestry.
Cheers

Hi Joel,
Progress on William Brown .. [Toll Keeper]
He died aged 48 years in Perth Royal Infirmary on 06 April 1861 of Bronchial Pneumonia and Meningitis
Usual Residence was 158 South Street Perth
His parents were, John Brown [Weaver] deceased and Catherine Bisset deceased.
Informant to Registrar was his widow Jane [McKenzie] Brown.
I have all births of their 7 children, and further Censuses up to Jane's death in 1888.
I will now look for his birth and parents' marriage.
