Hi Lud

Was having just a check for you here www.memento-mori.co.uk/64.pdf

Couldn't see any reference to Andrew and Helen. Wondering whether there is a surviving stone?

Hi,Monica,
thanks for the input, I was hoping there might be a stone, after all, "a poor butcher?" will leave the post open for a few weeks.
Cheers

I'm only 10 years too late with this.

I have a photograph of the stone at lair 330 at Tollcross Churchyard if it's still needed.

Unfortunately however, Andrew's name is not on the stone.
