Unfortunately though, the name you're looking for doesn't appear in the index, but I believe names are added all the time.

Thanks Anne I have already tried that link but Hannah does not seem to be in any of the cemetery sites but I have a letter from Cemeteries Manager giving me the burial details as stated. I had an enquiry about another child who was stillborn in 1940/41 who may have been in same grave but the child was born in England and probably never registered .Their parents lived in Grangemouth at the time as their father was a Captain in the Merchant Navy on the convoys in WW 2, he worked for Buchan and Hogg on the SS Dungrange which was sunk in 1944 luckily he was not on ship at time as it was torpedoed and sunk with no survivors .My wife has wanted to visit the grave for many years but we have not got around to it we are both getting on in years and I don't travel well anymore such is life.

Hi Clywde2
I live in Falkirk and most of my past relatives are buried in Grandsable, including my dad. I will be visiting the said cemetry in the next 2 weeks, if you can let me have the plan I will see if I can find the gravestone and photograph it for you, if this is any help.
