Cambusnethan Cemetery Grave Search - Part 1
« on: Sunday 17 September 06 17:29 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I am in Scotland at the moment and am hoping to be able to locate my rellies graves which I assume to be in Cambusnethan Cemetery.

I am searching for:

James Fulton d. 10 Apr 1886 (address 31 Glasgow Road, Cambusnethan, Wishaw, Lanark)

Christina Fulton (nee McIntyre) d. 9 Apr 1902 (address Glasgow Road, Cambusnethan)

I would really grateful if anyone could look up the cemetery records and see if they are indeed at Cambusnethan Cemetery, as I have no idea where to begin. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Are there MI inscriptions for the cemetery I could look up?

Any help would be great :)

Hi Jenny,

Your best bet would be to contact the Cemetery Records Office:

http://www.northlan.gov.uk/living+here/births+marriages+and+deaths/deaths/cambusnethan+cemetery.html

They should be able to direct you to where your ancestors are buried.

Good Luck

Anne

Hi Anne,

I have tried e-mailing them a couple of time in the last few months but have heard nothing as yet, maybe I should try the good old telephone....have you had any dealings with them?

Thanks again

Hi Jenny,

Yes, I have had dealings with them but I'm lucky enough that I can just turn up on the doorstep!

It's probably a good idea to give them a wee ring or if you're in the area, call in. It would only take them five minutes to look at the Cambusnethan Records . . . . providing they're not toooooooo busy!!!

Good luck in finding them.

Anne

Hi Jenny,

If they are buried in Cambusnethan churchyard, there are no headstones for them - no M.I. listed for the name Fulton.  :(

Hello everyone,

What a pleasant surprise to see all your replies this morning :) Thank you so much, I will have to go to Cambusnethan and visit. Ron, when you say Cambusnethan Private Graveyard what does that mean? Is it the same cemetery that shows up as Cambusnethan Cemetery on Kirk road? I really want to go and have a look so please let me know so I can look in the right place  ;)

Thanks again

Jenny

Hello Jen, Cambusnethan Graveyard is one big area, but divided into different sections, the oldest part is at the front  beside the 1657 church, it then stretches towards Waterloo, it being the newest part and still used. Lair 130, Private ground shouldnt be too far from the old part, but check with the groundsmen, If you are driving,turn right after you pass the old church, the office is just on your right. in a house. hope you find it.

Yours Ron.
