Im so stuck now heres what ive got
David King Taylor died 15th jan 1888
married to Margaret Thompson died 7th July 1888

Davids dad was James King Taylor
married to Christina ...........looks ike Osborne?
cant find date of death for those two

James dad was Peter Taylor
married to Margaret King they married at St ninians on July 2nd 1786

so thats where the King part comes in.

They must all be in St Ninians churchyard or am i going down the wrong road?

Hi I wonder if someone can help me please I am looking for the graves of Alexander Rae, SMITH of St Nininans who died 19 Sept 1819 he was married to Agnes Kinross on 3 Dec 1786 and they had one daughter Janet Rae.  I think Agnes may have died in 1789.

I am trying to calculate their ages, as I cannot find any entries on scotlands people.

Many thanks

Hi Linda,

Looks like Alexander Rae & Agnes Kinross have an existing stone in St. Ninian's Old Churchyard.

Have a look here: www.memento-mori.co.uk/72.pdf

The dates of death on the above index lists 1817 for both of them, so it may be the type of stone which only bears the year rather than individual dates of death. (1817 might be a year of death or it may be the year in which the plot/lair was purchased.)

There are also another couple of Raes listed.
