Title: Sorn Burial Record Lookup : Reid Mid Hellier / Heliar / Helier
Post by: Robuste on Wednesday 06 August 14 04:12 BST (UK)

Does any one know if there are burial records for the Reid family as above.

Also does anyone know the correct spelling of their property name and perhaps its exact location.

Would the Merkland property just north east of sorn on this map

Also been in the family.

Margaret Reid daughter of John Reid of Mid Heliar married James McAdam of Waterhead in 1715

If anyone knows of or is a descendant of this Reid family I would be interested in making contact.

Regards

Rod

Hi Rod

I have a copy of Monumental Inscriptions for Sorn Churchyard. There are 13 entries for Reid, may/may not be yours. You can get an electronic version for £4 here:
