Hi all Could I just add to what Christine said, that it was fun taking the pics and discovering lost stones, etc. There's quite a bit of work to be done to the graveyard at Lochinver to cut down bushes that have been allowed to push over gravestones and fences. I was told there is a gardener, but I think the job consists of cutting the grass and that's it. There are a huge number of flat stones and stones that have fallen over. I found circa 75 stones NOT in C&R, although many were blank (something inscribed on the other side?) and took something like 250 pics. - some are not perfect, but......... There are a lot of graves (depressions on the grass quite obvious) which have no stone. The graveyard is now closed, and a new one has been created at Stoer - that makes 3 graveyards there now. I also photographed the local church buildings and war memorial. The churches show what the effects of the disruption were, and the war memorial can also provide clues to the resting place of kin. Not surprisingly, as they were so poor, I didn't find my own kin's gravestones in the graveyard in Lochinver, but I found 2 references to relatives on the war memorial. I was also given a couple of clues as to where the lair records might be - previously, I'd been told by the Council that they couldn't be found! We didn't want to leave when yesterday arrived............envious of all of you now about to set off on your own visits!! Enjoy....... edward Limpsfield, Surrey Using Norton Anti-Virus 2003
