What a fantastic web resource you have created, the maps are brilliant. I am still searching for my eighteenth century Thomas Anderson stonemason ancestor at Forres, so I will be sure to visit again! 12 January 2010 - Bollington, Cheshire, England Webmaster comments   Thanks for the first 2010 visitor message to our Guestbook Tom! We will continue to add new records during the coming year, and hope we can help with your research.

Very best wishes for 2010 to all our visitors, and Members. In January, we hope to make available, the new edition of our Dallas MI publication, which includes minor updates, the addition of all buried stones, and with extra colour plates. Note that the Jan 2008 edition is no longer in print. March should see the publication of our latest effort - MI's for the RC churchyard of St Ninian's (aka Chapelford). 12 January 2010 - Aberdeen

MBGRG would be delighted to have an on-line MI/Photo ordering and payment service for the convenience of our visitors. This has been considered, but it is financially impractical for such a small volunteer Group. Our main aim is to record the data and publish our results for all. Sales of these publications raise only a very small income which, together with our Membership Fees are used fully to finance research of further sites. Thank you for your support 29 September 2009 - Aberdeen, Scotland Webmaster comments   March 2010. Since this Guestbook entry was placed, further considerations is being given to having some form of PayPal payment options on the site. We will post details, when there is something positive to report!

Pardon me, but I am still confused, how do I actually get a transcription and photo. Where do I order?? 29 September 2009 - New Brunswick, Canada Webmaster comments   You should email Keith Mitchell our Chairman and Photographic Archivist(groupchairman@mbgrg.org) giving details of the item or items you are interested in, quoting the churchyard name, stone number (also helps to include one named individual from the stone), and whether you require an MI transcript and/or Photograph. Keith will then check the MI/Photo Archive, and mail you back with full details of what is available, cost and payment options.

Through your site I found my ancestors in the Rafford churchyard database. Can you tell if there is a church still there please? 26 September 2009 - New Brunswick, Canada Webmaster comments   The original Rafford Church linked to the old graveyard was totally demolished, when it was decided to build a new chuch (The current Rafford Parish Church completed in 1826). The Cemetery, associated with the new church came into use in the 1930's.

Could you tell me when the publication of the buried tombstones of Dallas will be available to the public ? I am eager to find out if my ggg grandfather is buried there. 22 September 2009 - England Webmaster comments   We hope to publish these in a second edition of the Memorial Inscriptions of Dallas, sometime in the near future. I would expect the book to become available within the next couple of months, and certainly before Christmas. K. L. Mitchell Slight delay on this, but published Dec 2009, and available for purchase from Feb 2010.

I was really pleased to find this site, as I research from Canada, and right away I found the McLeod ancestors I was looking for. Thank you to all the Volunteers that make this possible to all of us, especially those who only dream of ever being able to visit these places in person . 20 September 2009 - New Brunswick, Canada Webmaster comments   Thank you for taking the time to submit your supportive comment to our Guestbook Heather. Good luck with your research.

An interesting website, which I came across by accident. Whilst it covers an area not specific to immediate interest it is facinating regardless. 24 August 2009 - Tyrie, Aberdeenshire

Dear Keith Mitchell, I was absolutely delighted to read in your Newsletter, November 2008 of the sterling work your group is doing in the area I partially covered in the article I wrote for the PSAS,vol XCIX, 1966-67, in particular the attention you are paying to St Peter's Kirk. It is immensely gratifying that MBGRG is putting such a welcome and energetic effort into cleaning and up-dating these distinctive monuments. They are a particularly fine group in the wider Scottish context, fully deserving the attention you are giving them. I wish you every success. Kindest regards, John di Folco 20 August 2009 Webmaster comments   Many thanks indeed for your email regarding the work of MBGRG. Your thoughtful and extremely kind comments about our volunteer efforts at St Peter's are indeed greatly appreciated. (KLM - Chairman)
