Information from St John's Churchyard, Ballachulish

(Transcribed from headstones and parish records in August 1998 by Alan J Collins)

(The word Livingston could also be Livingstone - notes did not say which spelling it was)

Information has only been checked back against the notes that were written when transcribed (ie typed against handwritten) and note back against the original records still at St John's. We do hope to do that one day.
