Hello, Can anyone tell me if there are any McCormick records for this graveyard? My husband's McCormicks lived and died in Ligoniel and I have never been able to find their burial places.

If you look at a map of the area you can see that it would be close to Carnmoney, The City Cemetery and others. I have circled the Ligoneil area in yellow. Source https://www.google.co.uk

They actually could be buried anywhere. Have you traced back further with the family. They could have come from Lisburn living in Ligoniel and could be buried in any churches there.
Sorry cannot be of more help.

Thank you again Maggie. My husband and I visited Mallusk graveyard years ago but obviously no headstone, as I know they couldn't have afforded one and we didn't know who would have burial records for it. I shall travel hopefully.

Hi Maggie
As my research for ths couple is inconclusive, I am hoping to find a burial for both of them which may help to establish more details. If you have the time to check out the cemetery records it woulld be most helpful t me. Many thanks VB
