[GForce]

Where do i find this? I have already got the names for his mother and father and saw they got married in 1903, but its the rest of the family i wish to know about and what happened to them.

I located the scotlands people section before under Lanark and this is why i started my search for further info.

Thanks

www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk is a pay per view site where you can download actual images of births, deaths, marriages and census records. The 1911 census may be helpful in your search for other children. His parent's deaths will be available to view too

Hi GForce,

This is the only information I could find about your Pettigrew family.
First of all, you quoted an inscription "Erected by James and Margaret Pettigrew" etc:

This is a double lair in Section A 38 and 39. The records I have show the following internments, all dates are dates of burial.

THOMAS H. PETTIGREW, Wishaw, aged 6 months.
Parents - James Pettigrew and Margaret Rankin.
Interred in A38, 30th Nov 1885.

JOHN R. PETTIGREW, butcher, Wishaw, aged 17 years, unmarried.
Parents - James Pettigrew and Margaret Rankin.
Interred in A39, 25th Feb 1895.

THOMAS W. PETTIGREW, Wishaw, aged 7 years.
Parents - James Pettigrew and Margaret Rankin.
Interred in A38, 31st March 1900.

THOMAS PETTIGREW, forester, New Monklands, aged 65 years, unmarried.
Parents - Robert Pettigrew and Margaret Wardrop.
Interred in A39, 14th Oct 1909.

JAMES PETTIGREW, Flesher, Wishaw, aged 63, married.
Parents - Robert Pettigrew and Margaret Wardrop.
Interred in A38, 23rd Sept 1911.

That's all for that grave. (And now you have a maiden surname to help in the search)

Also found this - Lair F65 and 66.

ELIZABETH B.C. PETTIGREW, housewife, Wishaw, aged 30 years, married.
Parents - John McCrindle and Marion Frame.
Interred in F65, 2nd July 1912.
Lair owner registered as Robert Pettigrew, butcher, 2 Park St, Wishaw.

I expect this is your Papa's mother, so he wasn't quite 6 years old when she died.

Also, for the Gibb grave, that is in section E, number 1552.
STILLBORN FEMALE GIBB, wishaw.
Parents - Peter Gibb and Mary Botham.
Interred in E1552, 4th Jan 1910.

ELIZABETH GIBB, Wishaw, 3 days.
Parents - Peter Gibb and Mary Botham.
Interred in E1552, 1st Dec 1913.

I can also tell you that in the 1895 Wishaw Directory, James Pettigrew owned a butcher shop ( flesher = butcher) in Main St, Wishaw.

Finally, i can tell you that someone else is researching the McCrindle family. If you click this link
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/frameset_search.asp
Then type in the names John McCrindle and Marion Frame in the "father" and "mother" boxes, then click on Search, it should bring up 4 children in the Pedigree Resource File. Looks like Elizabeth McCrindle was born in Cambuslang. The name of the submitter is there as well. (Try putting in Robert Pettigrew and Margaret Wardrop, plenty of info on them in there too).
good Luck,

Lodger

Thank you so much!! I knew a relation of my Papa had a butchers shop in Wishaw. Would this be my Papa's uncle then?

I'm not sure who Robert Pettigrew or Margaret Wardop is but i can see they have children buried in the same lair as James Pettigrew and Margaret Rankin. Would be great to have photos to see what they looked like.

In the Gibb Lair, there should also be a daughter who died in her thirties and my great Aunt Agnes, she died in the the 1980s though.

My Papa's dad is in the same lair as his wife Elizabeth McCrindle. Do you know how i find out how they died?

Thank you so much for all your help

Hi Lodger,

Although you have helped me in the past with Caine/Kane, Cullen etc. I am now wondering if you can tell me if there are any MacKinnon burials as my ggrandad Angus MacKinnon wed Rose Ann Cullen in 1888 & had at least 11 children, some of whom I have been unable to trace & there may have been some who died in infancy?

Regards,

Anne.

Hi Anne,
No McKinnon/Cullen children anywhere, sorry!

GForce,

This is what I think.

your grandfather was John McCrindle Rankin Pettigrew, born Wishaw 1906.

His parents were Robert Pettigrew born about 1880, and Elizabeth McCrindle.

Looks as though Robert's parents were James Pettigrew and Margaret Rankin.

Looks as though James' parents were Robert Pettigrew and Margaret Wardrop. This couple were married in 1841 (according to the IGI the link I have already given to you) and their Banns of marriage were proclaimed in the parishes of Bothwell and Torphichen, which means that one lived in Bothwell (probably at Carnbroe near Airdrie) and the other at Torphichen which is near Bathgate. Someone has submitted a record to the IGI saying that Robert was born at Carnbroe about 1816 but that should be double-checked.

We now know, from her burial record, that Elizabeth McCrindle's parents were John McCrindle and Marion Frame.

I think you are now back to your great-great-great-grandparents. Not bad at all. Plenty of flesh still to go on the bones but genealogy is a hobby, so go and enjoy it. Plenty of people will want to do it for you but there's no pleasure in that. We have given you an excellent start on the List, now, if you live in Scotland, my advice is to go to the Mitchell Library Family History Centre in Glasgow, or to Register House in Edinburgh and have fun finding it all for yourself.

Good luck and happy hunting,

Lodger
