Hi again Daryl,
Yes that's Logie Kirk.
The new cemetery is at the front of the church, nearest the road and has a big car park alongside.
If you're going to visit, go right past the cemetery car-park and you can drive right into the older cemetery which adjoins the churchyard.
Just to add to the confusion - there's actually another Logie Churchyard, a really old one. To get to it, drive past the entrance to the churchyard up quite a steep windy single track road and about 500 yards up the hill you'll find Logie Old. There aren't any signposts to it and unless you know where it is, you'd never find it. Parking there can be a bit dodgy but if you intend to go during the weekend, there are some wee businesses in converted cottages and you could probably park there as I think they'll be shut and their car parking spaces will be available.
Is it Gillespies you're looking for? If so, I can tell you that there's no existing legible stones bearing that name in either Churchyard. I've photographed the stones in both of them and haven't come across any Gillespies. If however it's other names, give me a shout and I might be able to save you a wasted trip. They're both worth a visit though, if like me, you enjoy spending time in graveyards anyway!
Anne
