Does anyone have information about a headstone with both these family surnames (PRATT and SANDS), in Fife,  please?

Many thanks,

seems rather a large area to look!! especially as the MI books are arranged by place then surname in index. However looking at your family interest i saw Burntisland, fife so, looking in the mi book for burntisland i found:

St columbias churchyard
stone:6
Arthur Sands, slater here 24/7/1860 aged 38; children john 30/11/1850 aged 3, andrew 12/5/1858 aged 9, James 25/2/1859 aged 1 yr, Arthur pratt 27/2/1859 aged 3

nothing coming up for both names name /alias on fife death index
