    3. Greetings Listers I have a transcript of the Tombstone of Agnes ANDREW erected by her husband Hugh WILSON (he's included later), which says: Erected by Hugh Wilson, farmer, Outmains, in memory of Agnes Andrew his wife, died 13 Apr 1866 aged 66. Also of Hugh Wilson, died 4 Jan 1885 aged 84. I have Agnes's born & baptised on 17 & 18 Mar 1800 (d/o Alexander ANDREW & his wife Janet ms NICOL), and Hugh born & baptised on 9 & 13 Mar 1800 (s/o John WILSON & his wife Agnes ms HILLHOUSE of Dykes Farm). However, I have just been checking them out on "Find a Grave". Agnes's birth is given as 18 Mar 1800 (so only one date difference) but Hugh's is listed as May 1798 (two years earlier than I have, which could mean different parents - or maybe the date of an earlier child of the same name in the same family), with his death date 1 Jan 1885, 3 days before the one I have. I don't have Hugh's burial date so wonder if he died on 1st and was buried on 4th. I have a note that both Agnes and Hugh died at Outmains Farm, which was their farm to the best of my knowledge. Can anyone help me confirm (or otherwise) whether I have the right Hugh WILSON (s/o John & Agnes) or have I slipped up somewhere? Another query - I don't have a photo of the Tombstone. Does anyone know if Tarbolton Cemetery has been photographed? If so, are the photos on line?
