Orkney / Re: Bishop Murdock McKenzie of Kirkwall
« on: Thursday 04 October 12 17:53 BST (UK)  »
I am also a descendent of the Bishop via a daughter. I found his memorial in St Magnus Cathedral in the office.. half way down on the right...formerly session house.  I took photographs. It is in the form of a carved oak cupboard with his initials and arms. There is also a well known portrait of him painted by George Jamesone one of the best known early portrait painters in Scotland. It is said to be on loan to the Tankerness House museum in Kirkwall.
