Hi kathi

looking at the original it looks like

Thomas Beveridge who died 29Th Sep 1894 aged 8 years

James Beveridge and Euphemia Young are in this cemetery also the stone is very worn and mostly unreadable
 James died sep 1878 (I think ) His wife died Sep 1896 (I Think)

there is also a James Beveridge and an Ann Campbell if anyone wants a copy.

I also have photo's of the following beveridges from Fordel

Richard his wife Grace Wallace

Robert Beveridge His sons and Daughters this stone is very worn some is not readable

Helen Beveridge in memory of her daughter Nellie

If you require any more feel free to contact me

On the war memorial there is another 2 panels with names if anyone want's them posted can you let me know.
This cemetery I think is at Coaledge just up the road from the local pub.

Hi Norrie G,
I wonder if you would mind having a look & letting me know if you have a head stone from Dysart Cemetery for :

John Mavor (b 1/8/1870, d 8/10/1936) & his wife
Mary Mavor (nee Syme) (b 25/4/1867, d 4/10/1931)

I know they are both buried there & have the lair reference but haven't been able to find it - not even sure if there is a stone or not. 
Many thanks in advance.
Noaky

Hi Norrie
Thanks again for looking for Robert Philp for me in Markinch.  Here is my post from this thread from July.  I understand now that you need two names, so while (as I say) it is unlikely that Elizabeth (Dewar) Anderson's husband is buried in Dysart, his name was James Anderson.

Hi Norrie,
I left a message on the Markinch gravestones yesterday too.  I have lots of folks in the Dysart/Pathhead/Sinclairtown area and would appreciate any stones you might have for them and be willing to share.  Here are some of the major ones I am interested in:

Elizabeth (Dewar) Anderson - died 24 Apr 1855 in Sinclairtown/St Clairtown at age 69.  (She was widowed for a while before her death and I believe her husband is likely buried in Edinburgh where they lived before he died)

Robert Anderson - died 21 Apr 1869 in Pathhead at age 57.
Wife Margaret (Deas) Anderson - died 31 Mar 1877 in Pathhead at age 66.

Margaret's parents -
John Deas, died 5 Aug 1871 in Dysart, age 91.
Margaret (Page) Deas, died 27 Sep 1855 in Dysart.

Margaret's twin sister -
Rachel (Deas) Anderson, died 22 Jan 1891 in Dysart, age 80.
Husband John Anderson, died 2 Aug 1855 in Dysart, age 48.

Thanks so much for any help or suggestions you can provide.
