They are mine.  It's Harriet Methven Beveridge and William Methven Beveridge.  I have the death certificates for both of them.  Their parents were David Beveridge and Harriet Methven.  Harriet Methven Beveridge died giving birth to Harriet Methven Beveridge Constable in 1898 and she was married to William Tasker Constable (1871-1962).  William Methven Beveridge was married to Agnes More Gourlay.  None of these names were on the stone with David Beveridge.  If you have a picture of the stones for both/either of these families, I would appreciate it.

Hi Heather your photographes of headstones in Bennochy Cemetery

Hi Norrie

Thank you for your kind offer.  I understand you do your indexing by 2 names but I am looking for a child whose parents were still alive at his death.

I am looking for a James Johnston (my Great Uncle) born 1915 and who died aged 8 in May1923 of accidental drowning at sea.  His residence at time was Rose Street Kirkcaldy.

I can give you name of parents, grandparents and great Grandparents incase he could be buried with his grt Grandparents.

James father David Johnston and Mother Christina Niven.

David Johnston's father and mother David Johnston and Barbara Hunter.  David Johnston(as married to Barbara Hunter) father and mother Robert Johnston d1913 and Janet Laing d1919.

Christina Nivens Father and Mother James Niven and Isabella Burt.  James Niven father and  mother  James Niven and Mary Ritchie.  Isabella Father and mother Alexander Burt and Jane Mitchell.

Some of these burials could be in Dunfermline or Auchterderan but am sure James would be Kirkcaldy.

Hope the list of names has not overwhelmed you.

Many thanks Jeanette

Could you see if you have any trace of William Cameron and/or wife Janet Barr? They are my 4xGt Grandparents and I know their son John was born in Pathhead in 1811. They also had William (1804 Kirkcaldy), Robert (1807 Kirkcaldy), Helen (1809 Pathhead) and Archibald (1814 Pathhead).

John, my 3x Great grandfather,  died in 1871 in Edinburgh so no need to look for him!


Nothing on Index for William Cameron & Janet Barr
who did all their children marry ?

Thanks for looking. I don't know who their children married as I have only been researching direct line. Not to worry.
