Cemetery Records
Name: James Wilkie
Age: 97 years
Male
Date of Death: 25 Jul 1972
Funeral director: Campbell & Sons, 95 Gordon Road, Mosgiel, Dunedin
Burial: 25 Jul 1972 East Taieri Cemetery, Block RA, Plot 167
Others buried in this plot are: David Pearson Mitchell, Irene Winifred Mitchell, Albert Douglas Thomson, Christina Wilkie, Gordon Wilkie
I think the use of the Mitchell surname - strong possibility these are related to Robert Wilkie & Eliz. Mitchell. That the Christina Wilkie is possibly Christina Brown who married a James Wilkie with Reg. # 1900/4232
I strongly think this is one of 'our' James Wilkie, Son of Robert Wilkie & Elizabeth Mitchell - who journeyed to New Zealand with Robert's Parents - William Dick Wilkie & Margaret Fraser and Robert Wilkie's siblings
James Wilkie's wife being Christina Brown (NZ Marriage Index)
However Christina Wilkie's Probate Will - gives some information that seems relevant, but requires more researching to verify
Christina Wilkie died 07 Jan 1963 at Mosgiel.
