Hi Sue I wouldn't mind a copy of your photos of the Kennedy gravestone. Some listers may be interested in the family story. My gg-grandfather Captain John Kennedy had three sons, Donald, Malcolm and Lachlan. On 1st January 1879 Donald (aged 24) went out to sea on the family schooner with Lachlan (the baby of the family aged 20). Presumably the weather was awful. Lachlan was swept overboard "between the Point of Rhinns and Mull of Oa" and never seen again. Donald searched for hours: he couldn't bear to go home to tell his parents he'd lost his brother. When he did, his mother was completely distraught. Six months later she lost her first grandchild to diphtheria, and three years later her husband (Captain John) died from drinking poison out of a whisky bottle. She never recovered from these shocks and the family story is that she spent the rest of her life (20 years) wandering up and down the shore looking for her son's body. Donald was drowned off Bowmore pier the year after his mother died. Seymour Hosking
