Hamish Dunbar told the Gurn: "Many years ago when I was home on holiday my wife and I had a wander round the Old Parish Church near to the river. I remember a plaque above the door facing the railway and the inscription thereonreferred to persons with the names David Dunbar and Margaret Hay I have a fairly comprehensive record of my genealogy dating back to the mid -seventeenth century and since most of my ancestors were farm workers it's unlikely that the plaque related to any of them. I am anxious to learn who these people were and have made enquiries at the Museum in the town, in Inverness and in Edinburgh but have had no success.”
Here is the plaque that Hamish mentions. Sadly it is in a very bad state now and after another couple of winters there will probably be nothing left. Does anyone have any information on the David Dunbar or the Margaret Hay mentioned?
