This was the oldest gravestone I could find. As it's partially broken I can't make out the entire inscription but it seems to read "Here lyeth......Janet McH......Shaw who died 16th March 1707 aged 40 years also body of Shaw Scot daughter to Alex Scot who died 27th Oct 1745 aged 5 months" See also Image
