Hi Jac2,

Please could you do another couple of Fife death lookup's for me.

They are Rev John BEUGO - dod October 1805 - Dunning
and William HALKERSTOUN - dod 1737 Co Beath - (not sure if the records go
back that far?)

Thanks
Tab11

hi tab11 :)
AS REGARDS
 REV JOHN BEUGO OCT 1805 DUNNING
ASK FOR THAT ON THE PERTH AND KINROSS BOARDS. SOMEONE MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP.
I DO HAVE ABOUT 10 BEUGOS ON THE FIFE INDEX AS ITS AN UNUSUAL NAME I WILL PM THEM IF YOU WANT.

WILLIAM HALKERSTOUN 1737
YES THE RECORDS GO BACK TO THE 1500'S
CAN'T FIND THE WILLIAM YOUR LOOKING FOR THOUGH.

SORRY I WAS'T ANY HELP THIS TIME :'(

Hi Jac2,

Thanks for doing the Beugo and Halkerstoun lookups.  I would be very interested in deaths relating to either of these names - you are right
they most unusual and most likely relate to my tree.

Thanks again for your help - most appreciated

Hi Diddy,

Thank you for your quick response to my request.  I am having a day off work today and will have time study your finds.  I am sure some of them if not all will be connected to my tree.  Either way I am looking forward to studying them.

Thanks again
