Thanks for taking the time to reply. I've looked in that past at deceased online and haven't found much. Nothing related to my family and they don't seem to have the Howff records on there. The site I'm looking for was specificially about the Howff. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doreen Cuthbert" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, September 06, 2011 1:40 AM Subject: Re: [ANGUS] HOWFF > Marilyn > Have you looked at deceasedonline.

Try this for the Howff http://www.fdca.org.uk/FDCATheHowff1.html There appears to be one Arnold - Margaret burial 25 March 1785, but is there a different spelling method? Iain Scott Member 3667 Scott, Baxter, Bathgate, Grant
