Can anyone tell me where someone who died in Glasserton would have been buried ?
 
I am looking for the burial place of my ancestor's John Dodds died 13 June 1858 and his wife Marion Morrison died 7 Dec 1867.
 
They also had several children who died between 1810-1830.
 
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

I am researching the McKay/MacKay family from Ardnamurchan, Argyll.

SERVANT Hugh McKay, 20, Ag Labourer, b. Ardnamurchan, Argyll
 
Hugh McKay married Mary Campbell on 28 June 1864, Tyree, Argyllshire
(on the marriage certificate only Hugh's father is recorded as deceased but i can find no trace of his mother or sister on the 1861 census)
 
Hugh and Mary had the following children
1. John MacKay b. 11 Feb 1865, Tyree
2. Alexander McKay b. 28 Jul 1866, Glasgow
3. Archibald McKay b. 12 Sept 1868, Glasgow

8. Mary McKay b. Abt. 1877, Glasgow
9. Alich Fraser McKay b. Abt 1879, Glasgow
10. Donald McKay b. 1880, Glasgow
 
Hugh McKay died May 1917, cause Congestion of Lungs, 26 Brown St, Glasgow
Informant was his son John McKay.
Parents were stated as John McKay - Mason, and Catherine McKay, nee Cameron both deceased.
 
This is all the information i have, i have no marriage record or baptism for John McKay and Catherine Cameron.
Where is Catherine and Mary on the 1861 census ?

Is anyone else researching this family ?

Thank you,
Debi
