Post by: joemacd on Saturday 20 December 14 16:54 GMT (UK)

I new as a boy of somone in the family being crushed by the buffers of a shunting train,i only just found out that it was my g grandfather Robert Mcdonald, i have looked for his death on Scotland People but no results, he was living in Dalry at the time and must have died just before the birth of his youngest daughter Sarah, this would have been about 1879/80. any sugestions.?.

Son of James of Dalry, husband of Janet Keirs.
You want 1880 Kilmaurs where it occurred not Dalry.
