Hello All,
Would be most grateful if someone might know anything re the following:-

One is rev Francis Renton Barry,bn 1853, Forfar, pastoring @ Aberdeen,
unable to find his death as yet.
his brother John Coupar Barry, bn 1849,Forfar, living in district of
Renfrew, also brother in law Simeon Ross MacPhail, bn1840, died in Glasgow,
1912, have his death from scotlandspeople, unable to find his wife's death,
a Margaret Barry MacPhail, bn 1848, Forfar,to Agnes Coupar and William
Barry, [Francis & John are siblings of Margaret's.] known as Maggie on
birth certificates. Tried many combinations on scotlandspeople, used many
$dollars, but no success.

Have a cousin of this families wife, buried at Dundee, she, Margaret Miller
Barry, died on 24th July 1837, her husband James Barry is buried with his
parents, Patrick Barry and Ann Dick, at Forfar,James, died 8th April 1849.
Interestingly, her brother posted a claim on his sister's behalf following
the death of James in 1847. Would you know why this would be done?
Have copies of Margaret's and Jame's Wills.
Have also a copy of another will, which is listed as a James Barry, but, is
in fact a will for a Janet Barry, should I advise the Wills office re this
as some-one else may also seek Janet's will & think there isn't a will,
seeing it is listed as James ?

Thanks for your ongoing assistance,
Best Wishes & Regards
from Barb
