HI Alison,

Thankyou for your posting, its given me some more places to look and check out. I have managed to access the following site for some parts of Scotland

http://www.kirkyards.co.uk/index.asp

it provides transcription of alot of church/kirkyard records and photos of all headstones but unfortunatly it is not complete as yet, I believe local councils are providing all of this as a matter of public record. It makes researching from around the other side of the world very rewarding.

Regards Ali

Hi Jean,

I am a new forum member from NZ and am trying to locate the graves of the following people (GG Grandparents) :

Elizabeth (Betsy) Blews or Blues born 1829 St Cyrus and died 6 April 1857 at Foregate Johnshaven and her husband William Fotheringham b. July 1823 died 22 January 1893

(the source for this information were the old parochial registers of Benholm - 1977 a scots genealogist did some research for my gran).

I would appreciate any help or advice you could give me as I am over here in NZ.

Regards Alison
