Thank you for the fast response Ray. The searchable website does not list Fetteresso and of course I have searched Cowie and Dunnottar without luck. "On line MI index" On the web page with a map of NE Scotland there are markers to show the names of cemeteries. "All the burial grounds in NE Scotland" Some markers allow you to see Images and or Listings of surnames in the cemetery. There are markers for Fetteresso cemetery but no information on surnames. Does this not mean that the Fetteresso cemetery is a work in progress with information but not ready to print or is it just a project to be done in the future. What I need is a Birthday for William or the name of his parents to take me back a generation. Thanks for your help.
