Burials in Douglas - Bannatyne

[Forfarian]

Does anyone have easy access to burial records or post-1855 MIs in Douglas?

Jeanie Bannatyne was born in Douglas in 1846, daughter of Thomas Bannatyne and Jeanie Brown. Thomas was a farmer and railway contractor, and farmed at Springhill, Douglas. In 1871 Jeanie married Benjamin Peach at Springhill. They had six children, three of whom died young, and I would like to find out where Jeanie and those three children are buried. They are not buried with Benjamin Peach in Grange Cemetery in Edinburgh.

The first to die was four-month-old Thomas Bannatyne Peach, who died at Springhill on 6 January 1881. Then Christina, aged 4, died in 1883. Jeanie died in 1884, aged 37, then Jemima, aged 10, in 1887, all in Edinburgh.

I wonder whether perhaps the baby Thomas was buried in a family plot in Douglas, and when his mother and sisters died they too were buried there with him and with her family?

Bear in mind there may not be a headstone

Thank you.

Yes, I am aware of that possibility. That is why I put 'burial records' rather than 'MIs' first in my original post 

If anyone out there has a copy of the relevant booklet, I would be grateful for a lookup to save me waiting for it to arrive by post.

I have the Douglas death records published by the Lanarkshire FHS and there are no Peach listed. I have also checked the MI's for Douglas St Brides again nothing, and a scan through the OPR's again lists no Peach.

Thanks, Bravaal. Much appreciated.

I suppose they must all be in Edinburgh then - but odd that they would take the baby all the way back there from Douglas, when they had only lived in Edinburgh for about a year.

This may be a silly suggestion but have you tried looking for MI's under Bannatyne rather than Peach?.....there are lots of them buried in Douglas

It's not at all silly, and it's why I headed the query with Bannatyne, even though it's really the Peach family that I'm researching. I'm sure Bravaal will have checked the lairs owned by Bannatynes.

Peach is in the death index of the St Brides Churchyard booklet

I only have the index pages

Aha! Does it just list the surname, or can you deduce how many people of that name there might be there?
