This book contains a transcription of burials that are to be
found in the Kirk Session records of Lauder Parish, Dumfriesshire, Scotland.
These records are held by the National Archives of Scotland in Edinburgh, and
it is believed they have not been transcribed or indexed before.
The register is in the form of a little notebook, possibly
kept by the gravedigger. The spelling is eccentric to say the least, but we
have endeavoured to transcribe the entries exactly as they appear in the
register. A detailed note has been kept of the Cavers family, of Lauder,
recording deaths from 1785 to 1849, but apart from these entries, the main
record runs from June 1827 to November 1838, running to 520 entries in total.
