close to the north side
of the garden wall is a
spot marked in the
maps "Burial ground
of the Oliphant Family" -
So far this was correct
that in 1856 the place was
adapted for burial and
a young child of the
family was interred there
in that year. But it
was never consecrated and
in 1872 I had the
old family burial ground
beside the parish Church
of Forgandenny entirely
taken up and vaulted so
that it could be used
for generations to come without
crowding and I have
the remains of the child
above mentioned removed
there.
Consequently the place
in the Policies of Rossie
marked as a burial ground
is no longer such and
it may be as well to make
a note of this when any
correction of the Survey is
being made.

Ordnance Survey - Perth county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Perth, which is in central Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
