Title: Dalbeath Cemetery
Post by: robtaz on Monday 16 June 14 14:39 BST (UK)
Would anyone be able to help me. I am trying to find a plot number and the other names on a headstone in Dalbeath Cemetery for a Bennett Tazzar born 1839 and died 1923, could anyone help me or tell me the best way to find this information. I would visit Dalbeath myself but I do not live in the country.
Any help would be appreciated.

The good news is that Bennet Tazzar's burial entry in  1923 seems to be showing on the Roman Catholic Database on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/search/cardeath/index.aspx  It is pay to view put costs are reasonable. There looks to also be three Tazzar entries showing in total on this Database.

The register will give you the details to identify where he is buried (lair number/ owner of lair etc). This info might help in trying to arrive at a possible stone/inscription. There may not be a stone though. Not everyone had one or it may have been lost over time.

If you find a lair number I'll have a look for a stone for you. I'm down at Dalbeth quite a bit at the moment.
