Globe Cemetery
« on: Sunday 28 January 07 22:28 UTC (UK) »

Hi

Looking for ancestors I recently visited the Globe Cemetery in Motherwell, although I didn't find what I was looking for I took pictures of some of the remaining headstones and transcriptions.  I'll make a list and if anyone is interested would post it on the site or send it to them personally.

Hi, I have tried to find the Globe Cemetery a couple of times, but could not find it. I can see it on the old maps but could not find access.  I know children of my ancestors are buried there, and as they lived at Old Logans and Roman Rd, its possible some of the parents are there. Their name was Muircroft/Moorcroft. According to the council webpages the cemetery is closed?. Can you help, Thanks.

Sorry, unfortunately no.  I took photographs of some of the headstones that were not face down and it doesn't look like there were any Hughes amongst them.

Hi All,

I also have relations buried in The globe cemetery, There are also a load of unarked public graves in this cemetery (paupers graves). Anyone looking to find anyone who may be buried there can access the burial records in the family resource centre within the Motherwell Heritage Centre where they are stored on disc.

Thanks Gerry, I did manage to find my way into the Globe Cem, but did not find any of my family, [Muircrofts] although from death records I know some of them are in there.  Most of the stones had been vandalised or pushed over, face down.  Did manage to get some photo's.  Will have to try and get through to the Heritage Centre to look through their records sometime.
My mothers name is Farrell, she came from the Law. Her father came from Penrith and Grandfather from Baltinglass in Co. Wicklow.

Glad you made it to the cemetery Duckman. Yeah its a shame the cemetery has been so badly damaged one of the disadvantages of it being located in one of the less desirable parts of motherwell and no longer accessable by car.
I know that my relation Annie Farrell McKenna is buried there and her gravestone is in tact.
I'm in the herytage centre quite a lot so if you want to give ne the details of the people your looking for I will happily check them for you.
My Farrell roots are based in Motherwell & Wishaw since 1890 before that Glasgow from 1830 then back to Co Down in Ireland.
Does your mothers Farrell line stam back to this area?

My grandfather came to Law from Dumfries after WW1.  His father Michael Farrell moved from Ireland to Arlecdon Cumbria between 1859 and 1864 with his parents William Farrell & Roseann Burns. My uncle told me that they came from Co. Down but other rels researching say they came from Baltinglass.

The name Roseann rings in my head for some reason although it could just be a name that i have seen in one of my searches. What was your fathers name?

Globe Cemetery
« Reply #13 on: Sunday 30 March 08 00:43 UTC (UK) »

Hi All,
Visited the Globe Cemetery this afternoon and was pleased to see that its been tidied up quite a bit. Sadly its suffered a lot of vandalism over the years and a lot of stones are broken or lying face down.
It is accessible by car......... If you turn down Kirklee Rd in Mossend / New Stevenson it takes you down via an ash road.
I took some pics of the graveyard to let you see how its looking.
Its still in a secluded part of Motherwell so if anyone who doesnt know the area intends to visit please ensure its during the daytime.

Should anyone wish a high resolution copy of any of these pics send me your email address.
