Where would I get the info on people who are buried in the cemetery but do not have memorial stones? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Janet I am researching the family of John Scott b Tyrie 1775 d Brampton Ontario 1853 and his first wife Elizabeth Low b Tyrie 1780 d Tyrie 1817 Married 20 April 1800 Tyrie. John Scott and his eldest son went to Canada after Elizabeth died. My 3x great grandfather is said to be a child of this marriage but I cant find a birth for him. His death cert (info given by his son)names his father as John Scott seaman and his mother as Elizabeth Rettie. Rettie was the maiden name of Elizabeth Lows mother. The Scott children were cared for by their maternal grandparents when their father went to Canada so the next generation may have been confused about names. Is anyone else searching for information on this family?
Thanks very much Alison very much for that information Janet
