Hi Norrie
Looking for headstones of SUTTIE.

I have a John Suttie born 1808 at Markinch, marries a Janet Grant (born Kettle).
I have them in the 1851 Census.
I think the John Suttie that dies Jan 1854 on SP at Markinch, and is interred on ''the south side of the Forrells (?) Stone" must be him although the ages do not quite tally.  Janet dies 1856 in Falkland, but I don't know where she is buried.

John Suttie's father was a George Suttie, who married a Margaret Russell. He died 1864 at Scoonie (which I believe is not very far from Markinch) - again I do not know where he is buried.
George's father was another John, who married an Ann Baird in 1781 (but in Edinburgh)

Any other Sutties you have may also be related, and I would be interested to see.

Many thanks

Hi Goldie  can’t find any headstones for John & Janet, George & Margaret
in index
From the dates of burial they would be in Old Falkland cemetery
but there is no listing of a stone for them in Stuart Farrell MIs
for  Falkland old cemetery publication no 16 FFHS.
I have no Sutties  in my index for Falkland
But www.Scottish Monumental Inscriptions has Sutties & Grants
Listed in their index cost £6.50 + post
Do you know who the children married?
I do have other Suttie stones but need 2 names to check index
eg George  Suttie   Margaret Arthur

Was blown away by your reply beleive this to be my gran and grandad on my
mum's side so thankyou always knew they were here somewhere, so glad my mum
and dad in same cemetery. Also good to add to family tree. Can not remember
how i managed to post this but will try again for my other grandparents. I
am looking for Robert Howie and Margaret Howie nee Ramsay married in 1910
16th december in Dysart so unsure if in St Drostan's. Also my brother Robert
died aged 17 was born 1945, i have a memorial stone in st drostans but
unsure where he lies. did here a story he went to what they call a paupers
grave in kirkcaldy? grateful if you could shed any light on all topics. Many
thanks norrie.

Many thanks for all the Suttie info Norrie. I have all the entries from the IGI, and the 1851 Census, but not the 1841.

'My' Isabella Tullis Suttie, married Robert Galloway in 1853 in Falkland. She dies 1896 in Kettle (address Kettle Bridge), Robert having died 1894.

Can you clear up this?
"From the dates of burial they would be in Old Falkland cemetery"
John Suttie's burial in 1854 is definitely from the Markinch OPR (from SP) - you seem to  be saying that it would be in the old Falkland cemetery - does that mean people weren't buried at Markinch until a certain date even though they are in OPR for Markinch?
I did find out that John's wife Janet died at Freuchie in 1856 and is in the Falkland register.

Thanks again

Hi Goldie yes your right John Suttie was buried in Markinch
my mistake
to make up for that here is an inscription from Falkland cemetery
for Robert Galloway and Isabella Suttie.
I have included a photograph 

443   In memory of my mother
                Janet BAINE died 19.1.1869 age 59
   my Father John GALLOWAY died 19.10.1884 age 75
   my brother Robert GALLOWAY died 7.7.1894 age 61?
   Also his wife Isabella SUTTIE died 18.5.1896 age 66

   The sweet remembrance of the just
   Shall flourish while they sleep in dust
   Erected by her son

Wonder who the son was who erected the stone

Norrie

[goldie61]

Wow! That's fantastic Norrie. Four of my ancestors in one fell swoop! Many thanks indeed.
The son who erected the headstone must have been David, Alexander or James. I shall have to do some more delving to see if I can find to which one it might have been.
Back to my notes to see if I can find anybody else in Falkland.

many thanks again
Goldie

Hi Norrie
As you seem to have information and photos from Falkland as well as Markinch, I wonder if you could look up another couple of people for me?

Janet GRANT, wife of John SUTTIE, died 4.12.1856 at Falkland (sorry, just re-read my initial post, and you say there is no listing for Janet and John).

John GALLOWAY died 19.1.1831 aged 76, wife Janet LAING at Falkland.

Robert GALLOWAY died 1.3.1858, aged 71, buried Falkland, wife Helen Piggies, died 1866, aged 81. Helen Piggies' father was John PIGGIES, mother Janet LUMSDEN.
Robert Galloway had a sister Magdelene born 1791 which I always thought might be a family name.

Photos would be great, but any mention would be a bonus.
Many thanks
Goldie
