Welcome to Rootschat, StevenGal. Are you looking for any information in particular?

[StevenGal]

Hi I would have a few to check but the first would be Miss Anne Marshall of Belfast who died 04 Oct 1860. Is your source the book of headstones?

I also have a photo somewhere of the cemetery prior to it's clearance in 1958.

Hi,
I have been looking for the death and burial of my Grandad, Robert Ferris, born 1880 and I think died in Belfast in the early 30s.
Would be very grateful if some one could look up the Shankill list.

Are you sure he was buried there? if not, might be worth checking new website for other Belfast burials (City, Cemetery, Dundonald & Roselawn)-
http://www.belfastcity.gov.uk/burialrecords/
Note: Roselawn records start 1954 so too recent.

Hi aghadowey,
I don't know where he was buried or even when he died, I've checked the belfast burial search sites with no luck.
Thanks again for your help,
