Hi Sandra
I hope you are still reading these posts. I've just read yours while searching for my family. My great grandparents were also Ann Wilkie Innes and Alexander Berry. Their gravestone is in Cargill Churchyard in Perthshire. They are buried along with their three daughters: Ann (died 1954), Helen (died 1956) and Maggie (died 1969). They had another daughter, Jean or Jeannie who was my grandmother, who died in 1932, when my Dad (Peter Smith Methven) was 20 and his younger brother (Alexander Berry Methven) was about 16. I can remember visiting Great Aunt Maggie at Cedarlea, Woodside (Burrleton) as a child, but didn't know any of the other siblings. I didn't know about your grandfather. My father died many years ago and my uncle Sandy was killed in the war before I was born. I'm an only child, so the only descendent from this branch of the family.
Your postings have added a lot to my family tree as I've only just started searching. Many thanks!
