Portpatrick Cemetery
« on: Sunday 17 June 07 12:58 BST (UK) »
If anyone is going to visit Portpatrick cemetery I would be very grateful if they could look out for the grave of a Thomas Shanks, who was buried there in 1865.  I believe that his son, also Thomas Shanks, was buried in the same grave in 1868.

I would love to receive a photograph of the grave if at all possible.

thank you

Hi
I am going up to Stranraer next weekend and hopefully go to Portpatrick, do you know if the grave is in the old cemetery? I will of course take a photo if I can find it.

Hi Beenie

Thank you for your kind offer.

Unfortunately, I don't know whether the burial is in the old cemetery - I hope that it won't be too difficult to find!
