Hey Sylvia,

I am glad I was able to help you find the d/c for your John Stewart.  Yes I was trying to look for the David Stewart that had parent's David and Jane Donaldson, I have not been able to find anything definite for him or his brother William.  I am thinking they may have emmigrated to another country but which one I'm not sure where  :).  I would assume you have the death certificate for David Stewart from 1910??

The daughter Jane, of David and Jane, is my great great grandmother and have been tracing a line of 3 generations of illegimate births from that which has been a challenge.  I have been trying to obtain headstones, photographs of relatives from Lochlee but finding it difficult being from Canada.

Hello Jeff

Yes, I have a copy of the d/c for David Stewart who died in 1910.  I live close to a family history library run by the Mormon Church. I ordered the films covering all marriages and death for Edzell and Lochlee from 1855 to 1875 plus 1881 and 1891.  I made notes of ALL entries.  Have you heard of a book titled Glenesk, The History and Culture of an Angus Community by Margaret Fairweather Michie ?  It's mostly about the families of Lochlee.  Your local library may have a copy ?
