Hope this isn't too far off topic. I wonder if someone might be able to point me in the direction of a resource which could help me identify the final resting place of an army officer who died in Inverness 19 Oct 1927 aged 86.
Thanks
(apologies if its too far off topic)

I think we'll let you off Jim
I'm moving this to queries and requests though.
Regards

I would contact the public library in Inverness. Give them all the details you have and they may be kind enough to look up the local papers for the period. Hopefully there will be a death notice.
Also, you could contact Highland FHS (family history society) and ask them your query and see what they advise.
Good luck. |

Jim,
If your friend has no joy with the library in Inverness, PM me and I will try to help - Inverness is just down the road.
