I have found the talk of the cemeteries in the Dornoch area of interest. We have Christian and Alexander Geddes buried in what we were told is the East Dornoch Cemetery. Would that be Golf Course Road? The date is post-1855. Are there any transcripts for post-1855 deaths? If someone would be so kind to look up an inscription for me, I would be grateful. We are searching for John SUTHERLAND who died sometime before 1840. He was married to Ellen and had a daughter named Christene/Christy who was both born (1811) and married (1835) in Clyne Parish. After John's death, Ellen immigrated with Christene and her husband, William McKay, to Oxford Co., Ontario. We are also looking for John ROSS and his wife, Euphemia/Effy ROSS, who died in the Dornoch area pre-1855. Many thanks and regards, Diane Geddes
Hi Diane East Dornoch Cemetery is Golf Course Road. There are no transcripts for post 1855. There is a Geddes grave listed in the pre 1855 - "Alexander GEDDES, died 16 December 1852, aged 28; his mother Christian Ross, died 13 March 1856, aged 66; stone erected by father Alexander."
