Other important data would be wife's name, his occupation, religion and any details you know about his life: children, participation in various wars, orgs. If he was born in the 20th C., this information is great, and records will be more available, but it will help for any time. Best of Luck, Daphne Jacob

    2. Annette Pringle
    3. To everyone who helped me to organise the silly dial up connection box many thanks. Today, I have solved it. It was really giving me a bad time and since writing to the lists, it started to dial up all on its own! Didn't believe in gremlins, I do now and am reviewing Santa Claus and the tooth fairy. Solution: When online and wanting to disconnect, I used to double click the computer screens and then click disconnect on my 4.0. Not in 5.0!! it does not work properly, hence the problem I had with the dial up. I now go into File - Work Offline and then answer yes. Magic. I think it is called when all else fails read the instructions. Feeling pretty stupid at present Annette in Dubbo NSW

    3. If anyone has access to the West Stirlingshire Monument Inscriptions I would be forever grateful if you could check for BLAIRS in the Buchlyvie cemetery and/or Kippen cemetery. I have traced my family tree back to John Blair and Margaret McLuckie (or so we think) from Buchlyvie. John died in 1799 and Margaret about a year earlier. Both are supposed to be buried in Buchlyvie cemetery. John's parents may have been Donald Blair and Janet McAdams. Any information you might have would be greatly appreciated.
