Welcome to Rootschat

His death reg is on SP and confirms he died in Dunbartonshire - Row or Rhu

3 deaths for that same name in the same RD

1867 aged 20 mmn Ferguson. Guessing son of Daniel who died 1884 as per 1851 entry
1884 aged 69
1891 aged 50 - appears to have been born Glasgow

Hi and welcome to Rootschat ..he is most probably buried in Helensburgh Cemetery I see a son Duncan Wheldon is buried Helensburgh Cemetery 1938 ...There are not many burial records for Helensburgh before 1900 ..I will have a look at the record's for you at the library to see if we can locate some other family members he might be buried with

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you ..Unfortunately there is  only one burial record for the name Weldon in the Helensburgh Cemetery and that is for Duncan Weldon 1938 ..You could maybe try contacting the Cardross Crematorium that is where the records are kept ...The lair number is
D East 22 they might be able to tell you if Duncan is buried with any family members
