New Kilpatrick Cemetery, (also known as Hillfoot Cemetery), Bearsden

[Chris5856]

Thank you so much for looking this up for me.... I suppose there may have been a burial without a headstone for David Currie ?
The report of the burial at Hillfoot was from his son ( my father, now deceased) so I had assumed it to be correct.
Thanks again.

There can be so many reasons why I haven't taken a picture of it. I could have missed it, It may be lying face down, the words cannot be read or there is no stone. Only way for you to know for sure is to contact East Dunbartonshire Cemeteries office and give the name and date of the death. They should be able to assist you. Chris

Hi Chris,

It would be great to get a photo or transcription of the LEES headstone if possible.

I think it might belong to an Ulster Lees family who settled in New Kilpatrick I've been researching as part of my surname project focusing on Northern Irish Lees.

Thanks!

Hi Chris,

Thanks for this. Unfortunately they seem to relate to another family though. Much appreciated nonetheless!

Cheers

Hi Chris,

Would it be possible for you to tell me if there is a gravestone for my Great Uncle, Jackson Millar? He died on 15th December 1958 and according to his death notice he was buried in Hillfoot Cemetery.

Many thanks,

Diana

Hello Chris, firstly what a fantastic project to undertake, and thank you for doing it.

I wonder if you anything about common or pauper graves in the church yard for those who couldn't afford a headstone, particularly back in the 1800s. Might there have have been burial records even if not a plot marked as a common grave?

Hi there,

There are records held within the Archives at East Dunbartonshire Council. I have not been through them, but Im sure the staff at Kirkintilloch Library will be able to assist you. Theres certainly nothing at the gravesite that has that kind of information.

Hello Chris

I would like to ask if you have any Mooneys in your records from this church? In particular Hugh Mooney died 1939. He may share this grave with his wife Mary.

Thanks for your hardwork.

Hugh.
