I think John Douglas may be my fourth grandfather, at least my 'research' leads me to think so.

I believe Jean Douglas (John Douglas's sister) was buried here or nearby along with her husband, David Borthwick. They died in 1840 and 1842, respectively. This information comes from a Borthwick genealogy document dated 1862 written by David and Jean's son, John Borthwick.
