Thank you for all your replies. I'll carry through on your advice. Can someone tell me how to answer to an individual comment on here.

Lanarkshire / Re: Tracing Thomas McCabe's grave in Glasgow

Annie, I don't quite know if this is how I answer your post. I have copies of both death certificates, very detailed, but as to the burials, so far there has been a total blank. As I said, even the Mitchell can't find them with all the details supplied. I don't want to put ALL the details here but Thomas died in 1921 and Alice, his wife in 1929. I say 'his wife' but she married again and her name at death was Alice Drain - but she STILL can't be traced by anyone.

Lanarkshire / Tracing Thomas McCabe's grave in Glasgow
« on: Saturday 15 September 18 13:39 BST (UK) »
My grandfather, Thomas McCabe, died in 1921 in the Victoria Infirmary Glasgow. His home address is given as Logie Street, Govan. I have tried everything I know to trace his grave (and my grandmother's) including asking the Mitchell Library's staff do a search. Since my grandparents were Catholics, I thought they would be buried in either St Kentigern's or St Peter's Dalbeth, but there are no matches for their names there either. Does anyone know if there is an unmarked section for the poor? (I know my grandfather worked but, since he died in his early fifties, they may not have had money for the funeral). Perhaps someone local or/and Catholic might have some ideas. Tahnkyou in advance.
