Offer: Headstones In Largo & Kilconquhar Cemeteries

[Bloosman]

Norrie,

I've looked this over again, and think I may have gone off on the wrong track...

My James PRATT was born in Kettle...his children were born in Cupar, Markinch and Kennoway, so it is more likely he ended up in that area, rather than Kilconquhar.

I've looked at census records for 1841 which show a James Pratt and Kath WHYTE at Barnyards with 3 sons, but ages and the names of the latter do not tie up.

So....now looking for the death of MY James PRATT elsewhere....

Just coincidence that he married a Catherine White.

Thanks for the assistance.

Dougie.

Why do you ask about their 3 sons...?
I have tracked down 4:
William PRATT, 1800-1885 (Gt x 3 Grandfather)
Alexander PRATT, 1805-1883
John PRATT, 1807-?
Philip PRATT, 1815-1885.
Have you further info on them or more sons...
I was just about to post this when I got you latest post
I can't find any of them on my headstone index
some other information which may be of use
I have 1881census information if you require it on the sons,

The IGI gives another 3 Children to James & CATHERINE
BETTY 29.11.1795Cupar
Robert 18.3.1803 Markinch
James 28.4.1807 Markinch
and from the 1841 Census you can see a Henry

Hi Douglas  so you think that James born 1867 Kettle to James Prett & Katherine Dall

but you have no paperwork to back it up.
 remember their 1st son was called William its usual to call
 the first son after their father  so it should be James

I think you were on the right lines

Norrie,

Tried replying there but something happened to my post and it vanished.....:-(

The last entry on your previous post are my Gt x 3 Grandparents, William Pratt & Agnes Pearson.

My line comes from their daughter, Catherine, who as you state correctly, marries John Annan.

From there, Annan mingles with Forgan and I eventually appear...

My quandry is regarding what happens with William parents, James Pratt & Catherine White.

I know they marry on 12 Nov 1794 @ St Monance - GROS 454/00 0020 0279 (St Monance), with Catherine being of that parish, while James (b.25/05/1767 @ Kettle) was of the parish of Cupar.

That's all I have, save for the births of their children in Cupar, Markinch and latterly Kennoway (1815).

Regards,

Douglas.

Norrie,

Your second entry:

    PRATT   James   M   9       Fife

This Alexander PRATT is the younger brother of my Gt x 3 Grandfather, born 10 March 1805 @ Markinch. His wife was a Kilconquhar lass.....strange how that place always seems to figure in things....!!!!

Hi Norrie

Thanks for the headstone pics for the Andersons in Newburn Cemetary.

I am quite surprised that the headstone are so "substantial".  Once again - thank you very much - really appreciated.
