Hi all -
Here are a few of the headstones from Inveraray. I found a few pages of
scribbled notes. I must remember next time to write in permanent ink and
THICK paper when I decide to transcribe headstones in a snow storm. Afraid
my careful work is now smeared and a wrinkly mess - oh well still can make
it out so here goes....
Hoping for some connections.....
