    3. Hi Viv, Although not one of the Border counties, I have a copy of the MIs for Norham, NBL and only a quarter mile from Ladykirk in Berwickshire. There are quite a lot of Scottish deaths listed on the Norham graves. I am willing to look up specific names for anyone.

Not a lot, I know a cousin of my late step-father did a lot of research on the family some years ago and traced them back to the 16th century, there are also quite a few in the IGI for Norham, so either they did not have gravestones, or due to the soft sandstone used in the area, they are now so badly weathered as to be unreadable. Following are all that exist now:- 1. Sacred to the memory of John Weatherburn of Norham who died August 31st 1882 aged 78 years. Also Mary his wife who died July 1st 1895 aged 82 years.
