MIs in DUNFERMLINE Lays Road Cemetery

[shirlbur]

I am looking for headstones of the YOUNG family, in particular John Young who married Mather Wilson Sutherland.  John died in 1928 and Mather in 1922.  Their son William died 1947; John died 1893.  There were other children too.  Their daughter Alexina married Henry Reedie and she died in 1962.  Do any of these names happen to be in the index?

Hello Norrie,
Thankyou for checking for my Johnstone family, I thought there would have at least have been one headstone. Could they still be buried in Dunfermline cemetery,just no headstones   Where could I find that info?
           thankyou,       regards, Oscmin

Hi NorrieG

Don't suppose you would have any info on older graves for Hunt/Anderson or Young around Dunfermline area these would be dating back to 1700 onwards???

Long shot I know but would be most appreciated

Many thanks

Thanks Norrie for that headstone. How wonderful!  William Young married Annie Munro, don't have date of marriage.  They had 3 children, John, William and Thomas born 1902, 1904 and 1906 respectively.

I also have Mather Wilson Young who married William Petrie.  Mather died 1963 in Dunfermline.  They had a daughter Mather Wilson Petrie who died in 1921.  They also had a son, but I don't know the name.

Also some Sutherland family members:  Thomas Sutherland married Isabella Fraser.  I know Thomas died in Dunfermline but don't have a year.

Any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks, Shirley

   Hi Oscmin you could contact Margaret Lyle on line

you would require all names and dates day month and year
as the last time I used it they still had to look it up in the book.
you may also have to pay a fee.

I all, I recently obtained a copy of the Scottish Monumental Inscriptions
for DouglasBank Cemetery, Pattismuir by Rosyth

So I will also check that cemetery when dealing with enquires
for Dunfermline MIs

to check this site I will require the Male & Female names you
are looking for.
eg   John BROWN & Mary WHITE etc.
