>From The Dumfries Weekly Journal, 23rd December,1823Sourced by Robert Wells, and transcribed by myself. "At Kirkcowan, on Thursday last, after a tedious illness, Mrs John Neilson. She was a woman whose amiable dispositions endeared her to all within the circle of her acquaintance; the recollection of which tends to embitter the cup of sorrow to her husband and numerous friends."DianaHenry
