Thank you General Dogsbody!

None of the listed are part of my research, but may be now...

I leave this as an open inquiry if someone may have info on Redgrave burials.

Thank you, John!

Conclusion: Was not the right Brown family.

Respectfully, the Ancestry Phone Book listings have been studied.
The listing, as Helen W Pryde is a resident of Forfar, Angus.

Kindly seeking info on Helen W Pryde, writer of the radio play and seven books entitled "The McFlannels" which were the kind and funny stories of a Glasgow family. The radio play apparently started in 1939, books were written after WWII.
It is rumored that she lived in Laurencekirk, Kincardineshire/Aberdeenshire. There appears to be references to a Mrs Helen W Pryde in the time period on Ancestry.Co.UK in old phone books but I don't have a subscription.
The objective is Biographical info on Helen, as nothing published seems to be out there... Don't know if she is still around.
 
Thank you taking the time to read this!

John Hastie b 1839 Monimail married Agnes Dowie (b 1838 Rathillet d 23 Dec 1905 St Andrews), d in 07 Jul 1914 Portmoak, Scotlandwell, by Registry document. In writing this, St. Andrews has not been thoroughly reviewed for burials. It is evident that they traveled across Fife a bit, making this more of a challenge.

Census:
1871: Monimail
1891: Cupar

John's children:
William Dowie Hastie b Monimail 09 Jun 1863 d 22 Jun 1942 Falkland 1866 Cupar, burial known. He was a gamekeeper and frequented the Falkland Estate.
David b 1866 Cupar, no further info.
John b 1866 Cupar, no further info.

John was the son of William Hastie (19 Jan 1800- 04 May 1878 Dunbog) and Boswell Young (b 07 Sep 1800, Blinkbonny, Abdie, d 27 Nov 1872 Collairnie (near Dunbog.)) William's occupation was ploughman until his latter days when served as Sexton/Beadle at Dunbog Church. He passed in the Dunbog Schoolhouse which was also the Beadle's home. The current retired Beadle of the now disused Dunbog Church did not have info on William. Researching this physically, it appears that this building is in the modern day hamlet of Glenduckie, which is in site of Dunbog. William married Boswell Young in Auchtermuchty 07 Jun 1822. William or Boswell's burials have not been located and are of interest. The wonderful Norrie does not have records of these.

Thank You for your attention on this!
