Kirkmabreck Graveyard
« on: Saturday 09 June 18 11:09 BST (UK) »
I am looking for the records of who is buried in the old Kirkmabreck graveyard. The record I saw when I was in Creetown said that my ancestor Ebenezer Maxwell was buried in plot 98 but when we looked there it was someone else.   Can I get a list of all the people buried in that graveyard from somewhere, I managed to get some names from the headstones but they were very hard to read. Also can I see who is buried in the new graveyard to see where the other members of the family are buried. They died in Creetown, Dumfries & Galloway.   When did people start to be cremated instead of buried? 


Added -
I now have a list of people buried in the old graveyard.

Hi Chris, I’m also very interested too (being a Maxwell!) - would you be able to share the list at all?
