I appreciate that this is an old message but Duncan Keir husband of Janet Stewart is buried in Buchlyvie Churchyard next to his brother Finlay who married Barbra Morrison.
~~~~~~~~-------------------
The MI (p36) reads
15. Finlay Keir 17.5.1850 77, w Barbra Morrison 29.5.1853 83, s Finlay 23.2.1858 46
16. (next to & resembling 15) Duncan Keir late farmer Ward 1.11.1851 80, w Janet Stewart 13.6.1865 74, s Alex Lochore K. 25.10.1880 55, s Duncan 27.11.1888 66 (w. Lillias McKenzie 5.7.1904 78)
~~~~~~~~--------------------
As Janet Keir was a widow in 1851 I think that the MI has wrongly transcribed Duncan's death. It was possibly 1.1.1851
Hope this helps. I think that the ages of the two men & names of children strongly suggests parents were Finlay Keir/Kear and Janet McFeat/McPheat
