Hi

I'm new to this site but would appreciate details on the Scott & Graham headstone or any other Graham ones. My ancestors were Robert Graham (b abt 1785) and Helen Scott. Does this stone fit?

Thanks

Hi Logcal,

Welcome to rootschat. I don't have a photograph of the headstone you speak of, sorry. That isn't to say that one doesn't exist, I only managed to take a few that day because of the very bright sunshine! (Never thought I'd tell anyone that about the Scottish weather).

The only information I can give is about the Scott - Graham stone and the Scott - Gibson one.

"Erected by James Scott late farmer in Moorhouse of Liberton in memory of Christian Graham his spouse who died January 1819 aged 72 years and 2 of their children interred here. Also the said James Scott who died 19th September 1839 aged 98 years".

"John Scott tenant in Libertoun died 13th March 1785 aged 75 years. His wife Susan Gibson died 6th May 1780 aged 74 years. Their grandson William Scott died 9th August 1783 aged 16 years".

Good luck with your research, sorry I couldn't be of any help.

Hi there,

I'm very interested in any you have bearing the name Tweedie. I have been researching over on ancestry.com and have just signed up here.

I will PM your my email address.

Thanks in advance.

Hi JanineB

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

You need a couple of posts here on RC before your PM service is activated...

Hi Monica.

I did wonder if that was the case as I couldn't see the option!

Thanks for letting me know.

Lodger - if you can upload it here even, that'd be great.

Thanks for the welcome!

Hi Janine,

Welcome to Rootschat, here is the only stone I have a picture of with the name Tweedie. The last part reads "James Tweedie their grandson who died June 22nd 1866 aged 10 years".

There may very well be other stones but I don't have a picture of them, sorry.

Evening,

I've recently contact south Lancashire council trying to locate a grave-plot for a relative of mine who is buried in Libberton church yard. She has advised that they don't hold the records for 1911. Any help on how i could find the plot number please?

Thanks
