Turns out I do have that will on file - must have dismissed it a while ago! I'll have another look.

Some stuff on Guisachan where the Golden Retriever was invented,

I was going to suggest Eskadale for Catholic burials.

Will leave you to your will/inventory for the moment, Alastair. I've just had an 1727 Shropshire  will/obligation of one of my ancestors in the post and I'm having trouble reading it!

Good luck with that Gadget! If you need any help deciphering ...

I have the Alexander who died 1894 on file - his sister Margaret married John Fraser at Little Struy in 1862. They were children of Alexander Chisholm and Janet (Jessie) MacRae. I can't see any connection to my Alexander whose estimated age is about 20 years different from this one ... :(

Skoosh - thanks for the suggestion and the Guisachan info. I know the Eskadale Churchyard well. My own father is buried there along with several other relatives - no sign of Alex and Sarah though ...

I'll be off air for a bit now ... got a plane to catch!
