St Joseph's Cemetery, Airdrie
« on: Tuesday 13 September 11 00:05 BST (UK) »
Dear All,

Im at present involved in a project to transcribe all the lair books for the above cemetery. Ive also taken about 3000 headstone pics and transcribed the details on them to a database. I have details of nearly 5000 interred at the cemetery just through the headstones.  Im building a website to allow access to the database. For copyright reasons I cannot produce pics of the headstones or lair books, however Im willing to do lookups and confirm details should anyone require them. At present the lair books are transcribed from Jan 1860 to May 1864.

The cemetery now features on Facebook

Regards

Chris

Well done, Chris! Thank you for all that hard work.

I could probably inundate you with lookups, as I probably have zillions of rellies buried there. Is the web site going to have an index of names?

Meantime, I'd be interested to know if there are any Waddells or Stor(r)(i/e)(y)s.

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Ive applied for a grant to cover the cost of running the website. It is intended that it will have a searchable index and that it will be free to access the information. Im still awaiting word on the grant. As you can see from my website it does not offer much in they way of photos or database. This is free to run, it only starts to cost when I need the capacity to put photos and the database on it. In the meantime, Im happy enough to do lookups in here.

Im afraid I have no Waddells or Stor(r)(i/e)(y)s yet, although I do have a few Black's....

Thanks, Chris.

I had avoided asking about Blacks because I thought there would be too many! I don't think any of these are mine.
