Title: Dunfermline burial records
Post by: Tickettyboo on Saturday 05 September 20 14:11 BST (UK)

I have a death register entry from SP for
William McBAIN, labourer, aged 68, died 13 Nov 1902 in the Poorhouse, Dunfermline, from disease of the heart which he'd had 'for many months'

Does anyone have access to burial records for Dunfermline or be able to point me in the direction of where they may be found ? I can see various places (find a grave etc) with some headstone transcripts but I'd doubt there was a headstone for this man.

thanks

Boo

  Try the office at Dunfermline Crematorium that could be your best place . Kirsty.

Thank you Kirsty and xin.
I looked at the bereavement services webpage and it says that at the moment they can't accommodate family searches.

I'll keep a note of their email address and try whenever they are able to resume normal service.
