galashiels scotland cemetery records
« on: Thursday 12 May 11 04:25 BST (UK) »
Hello,
 I recently purchased two cd's (Old Ladhope Cemetery & Eastlands Cemetery) which lists headstones in those cemeteries. It also has photos of headstones and mapes of the same cemeteries. I will look up names of those interested. Please include name(s) and if possible death date.
  Hello,
Since my  May 11 entry, i expected people to email abt. any requests they would like me to do for them regarding the Eastlands & Old Ladhope Cemeteries. I received very emails, but i noticed many requests when i went to the rootschat website. I plan to repond to all requests.

Hi Kevin, are there any Duns (normally 1 'n' but might be 2). Specifically George Dun who died sometime shortly after 1841, he would be about 80, or anyone who might be his father or an earlier ancestor. Also his wife Euphemia Lees, she must have died between 1829 and 1841. Any Dun at all with 1 "n" who is there will be closely connected to my family. Thanks so much.

PS George Dun lived in Sime Place at the time of his death but previously farmed at Whitebank and Hollybush. A John Dun farmed at Kilknowe at the end of the 18th century. Before that I think the family probabaly came from Lindean/Boleside just outside Gala.

Hello Kevin
This is my first contact so I hope I have got it right! I am interested in a Hilda Jane Hogg and her parents. Hilda, who's mother was born in Leeds was baptised in Leeds, West Riding of Yorkshire 7 Oct 1900. Her parents were George Clark Hogg and Alice (Wright) Hogg who lived in Galashiels and are on the 1901 census is not. I suspect she may have died in Galashiels during the winter of 1900-1901. Any information you may be able provide regarding any of these people would be most welcome.
Regards
Bridkid

My great great great grandfather Alexander Ramsay died 4 December 1899 at  Knowe Cottage, Galashiels. Have no idea where he is buried - he was from Edinburgh but was staying with a daughter at the time of his death. Would really appreciate you having a look to see if he is in either of the cemeteries you have details for. Many thanks.
