Thanks for the prompt repy - that's great! That is them alright. Now I wonder if any of the others are  his father or brothers.

Look forward to hearing.

Judy  :)

PS Is this St Andrews Cathedral and were there any other churches in St Andrews in those days?


Lots of churches ... as you'd imagine for a 'Cathedral town'.

St Andrews Cathedral has another smaller cemetery beside it known as the Eastern Cemetery.  There is also a newer one to the west of the town known ... of course ... as the Western Cemetery.

Hi I have quite a few look ups at various churchyards, here goes:

St.Andrews
David Arnot(t)   died c 1870
Jemima McRobbie (nee Arnot) born 1866
Robina Arnot(t)  died c 1870
Thomas Arnot(t)  died c 1908
Mary Arnot(t)  died 1901
Alexander Arnot(t) born 1804
David Arnot(t) born 1799  died c 1801
David Arnot(t) born 1827
Elizabeth Arnot(t) died 1875
Harriet Smart died 1917
Alan Smart died 1903
James Arnot(t) born 1807
Robina Halkerston died 1906
Alexander Halkerston died 1892
Thomas Arnot(t)  died 1935
Euphemia White born 1851
Robina Craig died abt 1987
Janet Robertson born abt 1842  died bef 1874
Thomas Robertson born 1805

Ferry Port On Craig
Harriet Craig died 1974
James Craig died 1910
Alexanda Robertson died 1942


Cupar
Harriet Craig  died 1923

Actually it might be easier to say any Halkerston, Arnot or Robertson in St.Andrews or Ferry Port On Craig.

I know its a big ask.
