Hi Bonniejean,
Catherine Friary (nee Donnelly) died in the district of Motherwell and Wishaw so quite possibly she's buried at the Cambusnethan cemetery. Might I suggest you contact the Motherwell Heritage Centre as they have a CD ROM of Cambusnethan burials. They also hold the newspapers for the area, probably 'Wishaw Press' where you might be able to find an obituary.
Cheers, Sage.
