    2. <Mr Glashan has also put up several other monuments at Stranraer - one in Ivy Place church yard, for Mr John McMaster, Caldons, Stoneykirk, in memory of his wife and children...> Although you have to wonder how Auld Johnnie did that, seeing as how he died 5 years before his wife, at any rate. Grave No. 34: Erected by Jessie McMaster in Memory of her father John McMaster weaver, Stranraer who died the 15th day of December, 1848 aged 65 years. Also in memory of her niece Jessie McMaster who died 29th day of June, 1852 aged 13 years. Blessed are the dead which lie in the Lord. Also Mary L(ogg)ie, wife of John McMaster.........10th February, 1853 (ag)ed 74 years. And in memory of her niece Mary Motherwell who died 2nd December, 1871 aged 21 years and in memory of the erector of this stone Jessie McMaster who died 7th May, 1876 aged 69 years, Blessed are the dead------- I'm curious to know how the Hugh McMaster who died 6th June, 1818 aged 48 years in grave no. 35 is related to John. Who takes care of Ivy Place, and does anyone have contact information? <cue the crickets>
