I have been going around Liberton cemetery for the last few weeks taking pictures of the graves and putting them on Find a Grave website.

Good for you - well done! :)

BTW the parents of Rev David Guthrie (1858-1941), whose gravestone you have photographed, were James Guthrie and Barbara Peacock. I have not found any connection between this David Guthrie and the famous Dr Guthrie of Dr Guthrie's School (Thomas Guthrie DD, 1803-1873) who was my 2nd cousin 5 times removed, and whose son, David Kelly Guthrie (1831-1896) was minister of Liberton Free Kirk.
