Many thanx Ellen for your kind offer,
all the info i have is from an old memoriam card


it says"

Interred in Sighthill cemetery

and at the at the bottom of the card"

1 Kildonan Terrace, Ibrox, Glasgow

this might be an old street name? back in 1909

thanx

Michael

I found a Sighthill cemetery in Springburn Glasgow, that might be the one but I'm not sure, only going by what is says on the card,  the card might have been made in a shop etc in 1 Kildonan Terrace, Ibrox, Glasgow and my Gt Gt Uncle is buried Sighthill cemetery in Springburn Glasgow??

let me know what you think??

Sighthill and Ibrox are on almost opposite ends of the City.
Sighthill cemetery is in the North in Springburn and Ibrox in the South West in Govan

[ellen1]

yes you are right,i think the best thing for michael to do would be to contact cardonald or craigton cemeteries they are the only ones i know that are within ibrox area.
