Fife / Re: Headstones In MARKINCH CEMETERIES

Hi Norrie
Thanks for looking anyway.
As you ask, I'm specifically looking for a David RODGER, shoemaker, of Scoonie who married Agnes DALRYMPLE of Markinch in Jan 1801. Agnes' dates are 1773 - 1849, but she died in Edinburgh so I doubt she's buried in Fife. I suspect David may be the Markinch burial below:
RODGER, DAVID (58): at Coaltown; 3 Nov 1840; in Dalrymple ground.
From IGI, there are two of David & Agnes' children whom I can't trace into the censuses:
Magdalene Rodger bapt 1813 Markinch
David Rodger bapt 1815 Markinch
So this Markinch burial is a possible candidate for David 1815 (and for an unknown younger sis also Magdalene):
ROADGER, DAVID (7): son of David Roadger, Coaltown of Balgonie; 17 Oct 1822; in grave of sister, Magdlone Rogar, interred 4 May 1808 (No 32, 1808), left side of David Dalrympll at Meetings, interred 29 July 1821 (No 35, 1821)
In fact I suspect the majority of those Rodger burials are relatives.
There's also a Scoonie burial that I was going to ask about, as a possible for the above Magdalene b1813:
1824 Rodger
At Leven on the 25th October died Magdalene Rodger and was buried on the 27th in the Church yard of Scoonie
I've found your Scoonie cemetery postings on other forums, but can't seem to find the right thread here. If you'd care to point me in the right direction, I'd be very grateful.
Cheers
