In the 1980,s I visited the cemetery & found a stone with the name Elizabeth Tudhope Weir. My great grandfather traveled to South Dakota Black Hills in search of gold and may have been conected to the Weir family, his name was James Robert Tudhope. We believe that he was born 1833. When I received my pilots license, I met a John Weir, in Brigham City Utah. He told me that all family members had the middle name of Tudhope & that his grandfather had insisted on this. If I remember, the stone was on the left side of the cemetery towards the back as you walked in. Hope that this is of some help
