mgscott  We have corresponded many times and you know I did the transcription of Ashkirk. Well I used the original 1962 copy as a template but all the stones were everywhere and was little help until the end when we cross-referenced all the entries and we then included all those(very few-less than a dozen) WHICH WE DIDNT FIND BUT WE INCLUDED THEM AT THE END TO MAKE SURE  ALL WAS RECORDED..
THE CD IS STILL AVAILABLE FROM WWW.SELKIRKSHIREANTIQUARIANSOCIETY.CO.,UK
