Sarah Elizabeth McEwan nee McConnell

[PJ Campbell]

Hi there,  I'm looking for help locating my 2nd great-grandmother's grave - SARAH ELIZIABETH McEWAN nee McCONNELL.  From GRONI I know she died 28/06/1902 6 St Leonard's Street, Belfast - aged 36yrs.  She was married in St. Anne's Church of Ireland 21/12/1887.  Her father was John McConnell and mother Ann Donnelly (married in St Malachy's Church, Belfast).  I'm assuming from the parents that she was brought up Catholic.  I have phoned Milltown Cemetery for a search (no luck), Belfast City Council (they ruled out Knock Cemetery & Dundonald Cemetery), I have also been onto the Belfast City Council website to do a burial search and tried different spellings for McEwan (nothing), there is no graveyard at St Annes.

I did find her Husband - James McEwan buried in Dundonald Cemetery in 1936, with his daughter.

Unfortunately I don't know when her parents died to see if they were buried with her.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Do you have any luck with this? I think that her daughter Isabella McEwan may have been my great grandmother.
