Thank you for your help with the Curries who are interred at the Kirkoswald Cemetery. I have also
2 William Curries for whom I do not have a death date. They were born in 1817 and 1860. There are also 3 Johns who were born 1814, 1841 and 1877. Does any of this information tally with a William or John in Maybole Cemetery?
Thank you once again, Nan

Only one of them seems to match up a little 1812 instead of 1814?

Thank you so much for the additional information on the Curries. You have filled in a few gaps and added  two names to the family tree. It's very kind of you to do these look ups for those of us who live too far away to come to the area in person.
Cheers, Nan

Hello
I am trying to find 2 graves that I assume are around your area. Adam Murdoch was a sawyer and timber merchant, he died on 24 July 1864 in Dailly. His son Adam Murdoch died aged 13 on 28 Sept 1869, of phthisis (TB?).
The wife of Adam senior was Eliza McConnell and she emigrated to New Zealand with her 3 remaining sons. I have been able to find the grave for her parents Primrose McConnell and Mary McGill in Dailly, but not for her husband and son.
Wondered if you can help. Many thanks.

Hi Misfit,

Sorry couldnt find Adam Murdoch... there is a lot of Murdoch's but no Adam's.

Thanks

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I know that it will be difficult to find these people as I have already done lots of searching online.
If I can add another one - I am also looking for Clementina Rodger(s) who married Adam Murdoch (I think he is the grandfather of the previous one) at Craigenton in 1791. Their son John was born in 1792 and I assume she died before 1794 when Adam remarried. I think her father was David Rodger and she was born in Kirkoswald in 1766.
I have been trying to pull together a Rodger family tree and there are 4 named Clementina over the years so it seems to be a family name. It is a bit hard to separate one line from another as they are all John, David, Hugh (including the famous one) and James....

Hi Misfit,

Sorry about the delay i didnt get a mail on this for some reason... I cannot find any of those Rodgers of that name. There are a few Rodger's around early 1800's but not by those names.

thanks
