I have just been told that my father was a Sargeant Major in the Black Watch Regiment
which I knew nothing about
How can I trace this - I have no army details just his name and date of birth

Hi Jean

I wonder if you could help me with my grandfathers and grandmothers grave
I have found that they were buried in the Old part of Johnshaven Cemetery
Compartment E Section 3 numbers 553 554 and 555.
I would like to know if there are any gravestones.
I live in England but am hoping to come up there next year.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi all

I have just come back online and can't believe all the information you have given.
Much appreciated Ev Monica and Sharon. It shows I really am a beginner.
Bit I am keen so I will carry on.

 James Skinner was my grandfather who I never knew so I will carry from there.

Thanks and regards
Dot

Hi

I have just started researching my family history.
I found what I wanted in the 1911 census but when I go to find a birth
certificate nothing comes up - there are several children listed on the census
eg Stevenson Skinner aged 16
so I entered the name and approximate date.
Can someone advise if there is anything else I can do or advise
of any reason for this happening.

Thanks
Dot

Hi

I have just seen all the information on Freeman and I have been looking for this myself.
My grandfather was Walter Freeman married to Isabella Adam on 27th August
1898 at Benholm. I never knew them they both died before I was born
and I have tried to find out where they are buried with no luck. My own family
have all died now apart from one brother and I am interested in researching
my family tree - the info supplied by Johnner Kid is excellent and I would be
interested if you could send me more details by post.

Regards
Dot Stone
