Kirkhill burial ground - Cambusnethan parish

[JulesT]

I find it incredibly sad to see these graves left like that. 

Thank goodness for people like Lodger who are doing a great job documenting what's left.

Well Done, Lodger, that takes real dedication.

Hope you were not too badly hurt during your expedition. You have been kind enough in the past to give me information of the Graveyard at Cambusnethan.

Keep up your great work :

Hi whifflet

Welcome to RootsChat  Everyone here is very kind and helpful so be encouraged!

If you are looking in particular for any possible burial details, then this is the post that you should use (I am assuming you are confident that this would be the relevant burial ground).

If you need help of a more general nature on this family or other points, then best to start your own thread with your query so that more people will see it and be able to help.

Welcome Whifflet. We all started out just like you and I know exactly how you feel. However before you know it one thing will lead to another and you may like me, although I hope not, finish with more questions than answers. But the really good fun is the journey, just don't do what I do and scribble little notes then not be able to decipher them.

Enjoy.

Hi Whifflet, I can't find any McPhail inscriptions in either of the Cambusnethan old burial grounds.
Can you post some other details please? The surname on its own is not much use, try giving more first names, the maiden surnames of the McPhail wives and rough time periods. Towns, districts and/or parishes will also be of use.
We will all do our best to help.

Lodger.

Do you have any records for YETT/YETTS/YEATS?

Possibly a Robert (blacksmith)

[Lodger]

This is the only thing I have, it's from Kirkhill. No burial records for this family that I could find.
"Gowkthrapple" is a good lead as to where they lived in the parish, hope it helps you.

Thanks Lodger, must be a brother

Any mention of Agnes Law?
