That's the ones I am after. All three of those surnames are multiply linked with the Peach family, who seem to have had a propensity to marry their cousins. Thanks, Sancti, that's terrific help :)

A wonderful thing is a library. I have now seen the booklet with the transcription of that gravestone, and armed with the dates and places of death of the persons listed I have contacted the South Lanarkshire Council to ask which of them is actually buried there.

Thanks everyone for your help.

Thank you, Amanda, for your kind offer.

What I was really after was burial records rather than inscriptions. However it was all for an article about Ben Peach, which has since been published, so it isn't important now.
