Lochmaben Cemetery
« on: Monday 27 June 11 13:46 BST (UK) »
Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone has access to Lochmaben Cemetery records? I'm looking for Hendersons, particularly 1) George Henderson and his wife Mary Byers and his son 2) Joseph Henderson and his wife Margaret Wright. Joseph died 29/04/1861 age 73. I don't know when any of the others died though I think Margaret died after Joseph.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!

I am looking for a Mathew Nicholson of Hightae who died in 1807 and is supposed to be buried in Lochmaben.  He was one of the Kings Kindly Tenants, are there any records from that time?

Thank you very much for your detailed reply.  I have Jean Nicholson Mathew's wife (nee Richardson) with the same date of death as the one you found as the widow of Mathew Rae, I don't suppose there was another one? 

Thanks for your help it is much appreciated.

Re: Lochmaben Cemetery - John and Mary Millar
« Reply #8 on: Thursday 18 September 14 21:46 BST (UK) »
John and Mary (Darragh) Millar lived in Lochmaben from the late 1850's.  John died late 1800's or early 1900's and Mary died early 1900's.  I'm trying to determine if they are buried at Lochmaben Cemetery.

Thanks for any information.
Regards,
Richard
