John Aberdein burial

John Aberdein died 1880 at 98 Dumbarton Rd Glasgow. I would like to know where he would most likely be buried and any chance of an MI?

Have a look at this web site :-  Memento-mori.co.uk

Go to Sighthill Cemetery and you will find an entry for
John Aberdein who died on 13 July 1880 age 65.

It's an unusual name so this could very well be him.

If you have any questions, please let me know.  The folks
at Memento are very helpful, so you should have no difficulty.

Cheers.

Rob.

That is indeed John and now that I have looked at Memento I see that John`s wife Elizabeth is there and also their son James Taylor Aberdein. That`s brilliant Rob. Thank you very much indeed
regards

That web site has been a godsend to me more times than I can recall.

A headstone in a cemetery can frequently provide a wealth of information
as you have just found out.

Happy hunting Aberdein!!
