Hi Billy, just realised I didn't put my dad and grandads full name
it was Hugh Bilsland Little Anderson.
I have a copy of LDS Temple record sent to me by a man in Salt Lake City and my great grandfather was Thomas Anderson b1825 also in Muirkirk I have just noticed on it that Thomas' parents are also on it and named as John Little & Margaret Smith

South Africa / Help with a mystery please
« on: Friday 18 June 10 21:15 BST (UK)  »
Hi
can anybody please help me, I am trying to find any info about my ggrandmothers brother..
Hugh Billsland Little b.27/8/1875 Bankend Lanarkshire Scotland   d.18/9/1902 Standerton.
this is all I know about him and would like to know more as both my Grandad and my dad were named after him (that is with his full name and Anderson on the end)
Although I have spelled correctly, I have also seen it written as both Bilsland and Bilslard.
I would dearly love to know what he was doing in South Africa (rumour has it that he was a soldier) wether or not he married and had children and what killed him at the age of 27.
Thanks so much in advance for any help :)
Regards Lesley

Hi Billy, a few years ago I visited the old cemetaries in Bathgate looking for info on my own Anderson, Anthony and Little ancestors, I have just checked the photos I took at the time and there was no John Anderson among them, but there were quite a few missing or broken stones (my own ggrandmothers included). I phoned the local cemetaries office and they were very helpful. Alternatively have you tried this website http://www.uphall.org/ they are transcribing all the MIs and although they are not on line yet, the person on there says they would do a look up if you contact them
Regards Lesley
