Yes sounds like him but have all the info, I know his daughter (2nd cousin 1x removed), and am in contact with her. His brother was James Henry born 9 Dec 1893, Died 14 Mar 1976. And yes this part of the family became Methodists, although earlier generations were COI. There was also a daughter Sarah Jane that married a James Leemon, and I am in contact with their son also. Their parents were Edward Gardiner born 18 Dec 1859, Died abt 1946 Married to Elizabeth (Lizzy) Henderson born 18 Jan 1868 at Belturbet, Co Cavan, died 8 may 1859, they were married 5 Mar 1893 at Drumlane Co Cavan. I can identify and trace this family back another 2 generations, because there is a family Bible, that has a lot of the data in it (but not all for the other branches of the family including my own).
These are not the ones I need it's earlier ones, that's why I am looking to find a "burial register" for the cemetery. So I may be able to identify others that may be related that I don't know about, or as yet have been unable to link to my family. Therefore I am searching for ALL Gardiners or Bryans family that may be buried there. I already have the "published" known headstones that are recorded there, what I seek are the burials that have no headstone.
I know you are trying to help, and I am gratefull. I have compiled all (but occasionally find something new) the data available on the internet for both Gardiner & Bryans in the whole of Fermanagh. In a lot of cases the problem is linking into family group's so any and all info helps, often burial records record others eg; James son of Edward of Derrylee, sometimes just a name & date which is not so helpful.
One I seek for sure is my Gt Grandmother Mary Frances (Fanny) Gardiner Nee Bryans Born about 1862 Died ? she is shown on the 1901 & 1911 census living at Dernish Is. So died after 1911, no other info available apart from 2 sons moved to Belfast area & 1 to England between 1914 & 1924. And no the Mary Frances Gardiner shown buried at shankhill Cemetery Belfast is not her.
