« on: Friday 27 July 12 19:56 BST (UK) »
I am looking for the graves of my husband's GGG Grandparents:
George Henderson born 1791 in Largo, Fife, Scotland
and his wife
Catherine Laurie Henderson born 1791 in Wemyss, Buckhaven, Scotland
According to the General Index of Deaths for Scotland, Catherine (sic) Henderson was found to have died on 20th March 1855 at Temple, parish of Largo. According to her death entry, she was then aged 64, the widow of George Henderson, and the daughter of William Laurie (sic) a weaver, and Catherine Neish. She had resided 8 years in the parish of Largo, and was born in Buckhaven, Parish of Weymyss. Her children are listed as follows:-
Catherine aged 41
Peter 39
William 37
George born July and died Oct 1830
Johan 32
Thomson born Aug 1, and died Oct. 1832
George Thomson 21
James 19
Catherine died on March 20 1855 and was buried in the Burial Ground of Wemyss. The information for her death entry was given to the registrar, by her son, John Henderson.
I would appreciate it so very much if you would look at your lists to see if you know which cemetery she might be buried in and if there is a stone.
