Auchterderran & Kinglassie M.I's pre-1855

Hi Elaine, could you please send me details of the Herd marriages? Youve certainly done some research. I take my hat off to you!

Do you mean the Herd burials?

Hi Elaine, any info you have on Herd families in Fife would be greatly appreciated, I saw M. I and thought it was Marriage Index!!

Regards

Surprising there's only one but keep in mind these are
headstones not a burial index.
Many more people were buried without a headstone than were,
because as stone was too expensive to buy.

Auchterderran:
William Herd, 23.3.1907, 75 yrs
Wife Margaret Clark 20.3.1912, 78 yrs
son David, 27.10.1855, 20 years
daughter Janet, 31.3.1852, 23 months

None in Kinglassie.

I have tons of other info on Auchterderran. If you give me some names
and dates I will see if I can find anything else for you.

Cheers Elaine, Im trying to find David P Herd, I know he died in 1876, but I dont know where, I have a funy feeling it may be Auchterderran or Abbottshall. His wifes name was Isabella Rennie.
The majority of people living in Scotland at this time did not have headstones erected. Its a shame

Thanks again for the info!

My stuff is mostly early 1900's though I do have a couple of things
prior to that there isn't many names.

I notice you have Reddies on your list.  Probably a long shot but  could I see the info you have.


Thanks

Thanks for the info on Margaret Reddie.  I have not got that far back yet but it might fit in one day.
