LANGHOLM M.I. ~ CEMETERIES
« on: Sunday 05 April 09 01:31 BST (UK) »
This area is new to me for research...so I have a few questions.

Are there any published M.I. for Langholm?
How many Cemeteries are there in Langholm?

I am seeking WALDIE burials etc.

Thanks in advance for reading and any suggestions.

There appears to be two cemeteries in Langholm:  Langholm Old and Wauchope Churchyard.  I checked the Dumfries & Galloway Family History Society's website who have transcribed various memorial inscriptions in the county but, unfortunately, not the above.
However, the Dunedin branch of the New Zealand Society of Genealogists (www.genealogydunedin.co.nz) have transcribed the MI's of these cemeteries.  Perhaps it might be worth posting on the New Zealand board asking for a look-up.

You could also try this website from The Langholm Archive Group - www.langholmarchivecentre.org.uk

Do you by any chance have Waldie connections in Roxburghshire?

Re Waldie

I am researching the McGauchie family of Dumfries.  Diana McGauchie married John Crosbie in 1874.  Sadly they were divorced, John citing Diana's adultery.  As she was also known by the name Waldie I wonder if he was 'the other party'.  She had a very sad life after her divorce, having too many children with no father. and died in 1893 in Calashiels of childbed fever.  I hope to find out more about the divorce when I visit Edinburgh in the summer.  Meanwhile does she get a mention in any of your research?

Thank you for looking.  If I find anything interesting I will post it.  It is unusual for a divorce back in those days, especially as they were catholic
