Hi Muff This memorial refers to the two men who drove the Mail Coach and died in a snowstorm near the Devil's Beef Tub. There is a cairn by the roadside and another in the cemetery. Regards Ian.

A cryptic comment in e-mail from a cousin this evening leads me to ask if anyone knows of, or has photos of, a memorial in a Moffatt cemetery in honor of McGeorge postmen?? And does anyone know WHY such postmen were honored with a particular memorial? Is there a story to this? Thanks, Muff - in Iceland, where it seems to be snowing, again.
