Hi Bougie,
I'm wondering if you ever were able to take a photo of this gravemarker? It was requested years ago by Loo... and maybe you were able to send it to her?
IN MEMORY OF JOHN ARMSTRONG OF BURNMOOR, DIED 17TH FEBUARY 1789
 AGED 67 YEARS, ALSO HIS WIFE, HELEN NIXON, DIED 16TH APRIL 1826 AGED
 92 YEARS.
I am researching the same line. My connection is through the Farris/Murray marriage  :)
All the best,
CGS

Hi Loo,
Did you ever get to Utah? Sounds like you have been diligently doing lots of research over the years, so I would imagine that you eventually made the trip? I went a couple years ago - solo - and it was wonderful. A bit overwhelming at first, but I did manage to find lots of microfilms of BMD records that applied to my ancestors.
*Bring a notebook and carefully record every search and film# that you look at, because there is so much good information that the rabbit trails multiply so fast and before you know it, you don't know where you've been or where you're going to next!
