a friend of mine Fraser Mitchell visited this old church and churchyard and found the 2 war memorials within the premises .
Alvie & Insh Parish church - Church of Scotland :
War memorial :
Alvie & Insh followed by the following wording:
To the Glory of God and in Loving and Grateful Memory of the men in this Parish who gave their lives in the World War 1939-1945
James CLARK - William DUFF
Donald KENNEDY - William KENNEDY
Donald McDONALD - Andrew ROBERTSON
John ROSS - Arthur SIMS
Alexander WILSON .
" As Dying and Behold we Live "
it seems that the church is open to the public during the summer months and has a number of retired officers of the Black watch and Cameron & Gordon Hdrs graves within the graveyard .

These men are also listed on the Kincraig War Memorial.
Between the two memorials the full names, ranks and units are identified.
Thanks
