Duncan Campbell of Blairbuie and his family

	In loving memory of Duncan Campbell farmer Blairbuie Strathtummel who died 29th April 1887 aged 61 and his wife Jessie Robertson who died 25th August 1900 aged 75 also his sons Angus who died at Loch Tummel Hotel 21st January 1890 aged 32 All interred at St Lukes Dunalastair Donald who died at Logierait 7th December 1928 aged 84 and is interred here "At Rest"

Duncan Campbell married Janet (Jessie) Robertson, the daughter of John Robertson of Dalno, in the early 1850s, although the marriage has not been located in the OPRs. She died at Blairbuie in Strathtummel on 26th August 1900, aged 75 years. The death certificate was witnessed by her daughter Ann McGlashan.

Duncan's death certificate gives his parents as Angus Campbell and Ann McClintoch, but his mother's surname is highly unusual for this area. A clue to the correct name of his mother comes from the monument inscription above, which mentions his son Donald. Donald died in the Logierait Poohouse (Cuil an Doraich), in 1928 and his death certificate gives his parents as Donald (sic) Campbell and Euphemia Cumming. His age is given as 85, so he must have been born around 1843, and this appears to be an illegitimate birth. The 1891 census for Blairbuie describes Donald as Jessie's step-son.

In the 1851 census for Dalno, Catherine Campbell the daughter of Angus Campbell and Ann McDonald has an unmarried brother Duncan aged 23 years and a nephew Donald aged 3 years. This strongly suggests that; Ann McClintoch is actually Ann McDonald; Catherine's brother Duncan is the same Campbell who marries Jessie Robertson of Dalno; and that the nephew Donald is Duncan's illegitimate son.
