I'm afraid there's no such place as Haggs Cemetery.

The nearest cemetery to Haggs would be Denny, but there is/was umpteen Churchyards in-between the nearest of which would have been Dennyloanhead Churchyard.

Dennyloanhead Church is now flats and the few stones which still existed were re-arranged in the car-park. The Churchyard itself was cleared (I believe) in the 1960's, maybe 1970's.
