Lodger and Lud, thank you so much for your help and efforts in sharing information that I would probably in no way ever imagine to find!

Lud, I agree with Lodger, I didn't realise the graves would be difficult to get to (although I have done a bit of bush bashing myself the odd time - but not in bad weather).  Thank you so much your efforts and the stones are just amazing - I have never seen stones put in 'before' the deaths of people as a couple of these seem to be, really markers for a family plot.

Also Lodger, the information you have transcribed to here is just so helpful, thank you also for the time and effort to you have put in to help people all over the world.

Now I get to go and add a bit more information to my tree!

Hi Lad, that is such a great photo of the headstone, you wouldn't have by any chance got the others ie. Hugh Smellie, William Smellie (husband of Ann) esp. They are the ancestors of my husband, Hugh Smellie was his 4G Grandfather.  Thank you in advance if you do have them.

Thank you everyone for this information.  I have been looking into this Smellie family on and off for the last few years and just found this posting which has been very interesting, especially from Lodger.

JimmyM, just wondering if your grandmother Helen Janet Thomson Meikle was known as Nellie and married William H Greggain?  If so I have managed to find the right connection when searching the other night, would love to know a little more.

My husband descends from Robert Smellie who emigrated to NZ in 1862 and married Sophia Grant in NZ.

Cheers
Karen
