Tomnacross Churchyard, Kiltarlity.

I have found that two of my ancestors were buried in Tomnacross Churchyard.
Can anyone tell me please if this churchyard was attached to a particular church or was it a facility for the town in general?

Many thanks.  Linda.

Only just seen your post.
Are you still looking for details on Tomnacross Cemetery?  If so I can perhaps help as I have books containing the inscriptions from the cemetery.  Who were the ancestors you were looking for?  If you give me their names & birth dates or any other info I will see if I can find them for you.
There were several burial grounds in the Kiltarlity area including Kiltarlity Old, Eskadale & Glen Convinth.  Tomnacross appears to be associated with Kiltarlity Church.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply. I will have to look at my tree to see which ancestors I had in mind because its a while since I posted.

There are a couple of pictures of the church on the HER.

If you go to the search page you can find the old church and also you can drag the map around.

Also one I took on this site.

I have just seen your message regarding the Tomnacross Cemetary and wondered if you have any record of any Newells being buried there? They were an english family living there sometime between 1860 and 1880. I am looking in particular for Thomas Newell although any other Newells would be of interest. Thanks, Phil.

Sorry but I have not got the MI for there.

McGraw, could you look up Grant for me. George Grant & Mary MacPhail,  They had three sons that I know of, George b.1848, John b.1852 & Roderick b.1854. Roderick at least moved to Urray but are the parents in Kilmorack?.......Skoosh.

Dear all,
I have relatives buried in Kilmorack and Kiltarlity cemeteries. I wondered if you have information on those buried in Beauly as well? I can of course provide some names and dates.
cheers
