Could you look for an Andrew Young in Kilmarus?

I belive he was buried about 1835.  His wife was Margaret Howie Young who he married on July 11, 1760 in Kilmarus.  I belive she was born about 1739.  Thank you very much!- kristin

Hi, Bob,
Would much appreciate if you can tell me if there are any records of Fairs buried in the Kilmarnock to Galston area.

Particularly the family of Thomas Fair who was killed in a mining accident in Galston in 27 Sep 1882.

The Fair family moved from Kilmarnock ~1850 through Crougar to Galston.

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jim
      There are no Fair/s gravestone inscriptions in the book of Kilmarnock and Loudoun Monumental inscriptions pre 1855.  Sorry I could't help
