Hi there, I'm looking for St Quivox churchyard info and came upon your posting of last year.
Is there a record of the death of a woman named Armstrong, death possibly from 1850?  This wasn't her real name but was given to replace her Italian name. 
She was brought back to the area, and looked after, by the Oswald family after their butler, William McCrone, died en route from Italy.  This woman was his de facto Italian wife.
William McCrone was my GGGgrandfather.  His Scots son was illegitimate so there is no record other than family lore.
I'd be very grateful for a hand over this brick wall!
Regards, Kathryn
