Comments

Hector Robertson's date of death was 29 September 1861 (not 1881). In the 1841 census, he was 38, 1851 census 48. In the 1871 census, his wife Margaret is widowed. I think the gravestone shows 1861 correctly. He was a great great grandfather of mine.

Roddie, your efforts are greatly appreciated. I have seen this gravestone in my numerous visits to the Black Isle.
Donald, Hector was also my great great grandfather.
