I am a RNIB volunteer who is working on a project to get as many details of the entries in the Outdoor Blind register 1903-10. One entry is for Elizabeth Jamieson(1824-1908) who along with her brother Alexander set up the Blind Asylum in Edinburgh. I would like to have a clearer image of the family gravestone for interest. I hope that you would be agreeable to this. Thanks

Helen Abernethy -- William Jamieson's wife -- is on my family tree. We're 3rd cousins five times removed, descended from a common ancestor (Thomas Abernethy). I had them both on my tree prior to finding this site (info received from a great aunt decades ago), but I did not have the names of their children.
