Can you let me know if you have a Thomas Thomson, he would have died in the late 1920s & early to mid 1930s, and his wife Margaret Black Thomson who would have died sometime after WWII.  I am also looking for their daughter Barbara Thomson who would have died in the 1970s or 80s.  It is possible you may have other Thomsons who would have died in the 1970s & 80s because Thomas and Margaret had 11 children and besides Barbara I don't know how many never left Lochgelly.   If you can let me know what the inscriptions say I would be most grateful.

I am looking for GEDDES surname, specifically Robert Geddes and his second wife Minnie Darling.  Robert died in 1937 Minnie in 1910.  Robert died in Dunfermline but lived at Melville Street, Lochgelly.

Also Robert's eldest son John Geddes who married 1916 to Henrietta Naysmith.  Another son Robert Geddes died in Egypt during ww1 and is mentioned on war memorial.

Many thanks

I will see whether any of these tie in with my Geddes'
