Jane Black nee Falconer and William Black.
Married in 1837.

He was born in Dyke, and she was born in Auldearn.

He died sometime between 1851/1861, and she died in 1898 January, and her death said buried at the old Kinloss burial
ground.

Would anyone know where this burial ground is?

My great grandmother was Elizabeth Black one of their daughters and also Elspet, Jessie and Margaret, William and George.

Thanks - Faith
