Wilton Cemetary
Wellogate Cemetary
St Mary's (no longer in use)

As far as I am aware these are the only three

Thank you for the confirmation...those 3 are what I had thought but was not 100%.
Do you live in Scotland?

At the moment I'm looking for the Rae, Cranston and Bogle families, although to be honest I have not as yet done any serious looking.

Let me know if I can be of any help to you  :)

Hi again,
               I have a Jemima Rea who was born c1828 in either Wilton/Hawick,Rox.Her parents were Margaret Cunning and John Rae.
I find the spelling will change so look at them all.
Jemima Rea married George Huggan Dec 28 1846 in Hawick.
They ended up having 8 children.
If you have access to the 1901 census.I am looking for this couple:
Herriet M Huggan  and James Riddell and their 1 st child.
Reason being is I have a 4 generation photo and have tracked down the 3 women,just need to know the baby's name.I believe the baby to be born between 1899 and 1901.
Many thanks.
I have the complete monumental Inscriptions for St Marys and Wellogate,...can I look anything up in there,other that those 3 names..which I will do this evening.
I am sure I will have a few more questions for you.
Do you belong to the Hawick Archaeological Society?

Thisty...I found 1 reference to RAE in St Mary's Churchyard:RACHEL RAE born c 1795 and died May 14 1866 age 71 years.She was the wife of a Robert Laidlaw 1792-1878.
They are buried in Compartment "C" ,Row 19. #7.
There were no Bogle or Cranston names in either Wellogate or St Mary's .
I do not have the M.I for Wilton Churchyard.
My Great grandfather ROBERT WALDIE and his wife Elizabeth Richardson with their 11 children went to Nelson BC Canada in about 1910,several of the elder sons came earlier (about)1904 and built the large family home,and my grandfather,also a Robert Waldie built a home  as my grandmother whom he had not yet married was arriving in 1910.

Many thanks for that info, I'll see if I can tie them into my tree anywhere. 

I have been told that my gt grandmother Alice Bogle (nee Rae) is buried in Wellogate cemetary altho no one is certain of the exact location. Her parents Robert Rae and Margaret (Wright) are also buried in Hawick but again I can't seem to find out where.

I'll do my best to get a copy of the 1901 census  :)

Not a member of the archaeological society but I may look into joining soon
