I have recently found a letter from my grandmother to Rt Rev Mgr John ritchie dated 2/2/1918 in which she refersto Dalbeth Cemetery as being the family burying-place, so I ws saddened to see the 2008 pictures of the state of disrepair.  It is wonderful that the current groundman has done so much to restore it.  I have looked at the list of names from headstones and cannot see either Farquharson or McConnell among them, my 2x great grandmother Jane (or Jean) McConnell died in 1853 and her husband John Bridge Farquharson died in 1876.  I have had real problems tracing Jane McConnell's family and don't knwo for certain who her parents were I had hoped that finding her headstone might solve the problem but it looks unlikely now.

Many thanks
