Most probably either Sighthill or Lambhill cemeteries but it wasn't always as straight forward as the closest cemetery. The family may have had a plot elsewhere, perhaps in one of the Catholic burial grounds or someplace further afield.
Place of abode would have to be taken into account, rather than which hospital the person died in.
