Kilmany in Fife gravestones

[Greig seeker]

Are there any members of Rootschat who live in or around Kilmany in Fife? I have an earlyfamily member called James Greig who was born about 1789 and who married a Christian Philp on 22 Oct 1814 in Kilmany. I have verified the 10 descendants born in Kilmany. He may have been brother to a William Greig born 8 Mar 1786 in Kilmany. I can find no reference to James Greig in the 1841 census, hence assume he may have died after the birth of his last son Peter born 13 Jan 1839. It is highly likely he will be buried in the Kilmany graveyard, which may offer new information.

Thank you so very much for posting this info!  This is info I have been searching for, and it has provided me with a wealth of data that I did not previously have.  William Philip, and Janet Lonie are my 3rd great grand parents.  I have the original and only copy of William, and Janet's son George Gilfillian Philip's journal, and in it he mentions that his mother Janet Lonie had 13 children but that only 5 of them reached Maturity, he talks in great detail about the 5 that survived but does not mention the names of the other 8 that died.  their is a 12 year gap between the birth of his older sister Jessie and his older brother Joseph and I am guessing that most of the missing children were born and died in that 12 year span, which was before his birth.  Christian Philip that is mentioned in your post is one of the 8 missing children that I have been searching for.  I also previously had no info on Agnes Greg, and her husband William Philip my 4th great grand parents, and their children that are mentioned in your post.  Once again thank you so very much for this info.
