Abbey Cemetery - Mitchell inscription look up
« on: Saturday 31 December 11 21:42 GMT (UK) »
"Hi NorrieG,

Many thanks for your help and the link - I think the Alexander Hunt mentioned in that list could def be my 5 x Gt Grandfather and was wondering if there is any possibility of finding out what is on the headstone if still legible.  Also I would be grateful for any info on the Andersons.  I am looking for a John Anderson b 25 Oct 1702 son of John Anderson and Helen Stevinson. Also there was also a William Anderson son to Thomas Anderson who were both Bakers in Dunfermline and also witnesses to to the birth of Alexander Hunt. I think these two Andersons were pos Helen Young's (Alex. Hunt's mother) Uncle and Cousin?

Kind regards and many thanks again

Maris

Hi Maris  the listing you refer to is of persons who have purched the
lairs, and not that there is a headstone on that lair.

In approx 1972 Mitchell inscribed inscriptions of pre 1855 stones
in Abbey Cemetery Dunfermline, I don't have a copy but you could
ask some of the listers if they have a copy and could do a lookup,
you would require to give Names dates etc

Norrie"

Can anyone help with this please? Alexander Hunt died in 1790 i am not sure about the others i am afraid.
