Have been away for a couple of weeks so have been catching up on the interesting exchanges. In particular that of Andrew Simpson who lives in his own little paradise in NZ while I live in mine in AUS. The headstone in Kiel churchyard near Lochaline for Betsy is beside another which may indicate a connection. They are in what is the same plot. If Andrew would like scans of the photo of this grave I am more than happy to send him one. Anne Maye ... also a McLACHLAN from this area. The inscriptions for each headstone are: Transcribed in Sept 2000 by Anne Maye. 2 gravestones, one large plot On left In loving memory of Dugald McLachlan born at Ferry House died 22nd March 1927 his wife Margaret Ann McDonald died 30th May 1945 their family Margaret Livingston died 13th July 1904 Murdoch McDonald died 12th Sept 1917 Duncan died 23rd April 1959 Base stone of pediment McLachlan On right In memory of Allan Livingston mariner who was drowned in Loch Lochy 1855 and of Catherine McInnis his wife who died in 1856 and Angus their son who died in infancy Allan who was drowned in Lochaline 1855 and their grandson Allan McLachlan who died in 1869 aged 13 years also their grandson Alexander Young who died at Port Limon, Costa Rica Central America 13th July 1873?
