Since my first posting on this subject way back in 2011, I have, over the succeeding years, gathered quite a few new pictures and, unfortunately, lost one or two as well!
Here are the new additions and, at the end, the ones I have managed to make disappear from the files!

Interested in headstones for McEwan - my grandfather and grandmother are buried here (she was Mae Ogston) and they both died sometime early 1900's I believe.
-
Hi harden, I don't have any stones with McEwan on them and no Ogston's in any of the records for Cambusnethan, as far into the 20th century as 1917 but, there are gaps around 1901 - 1904.
There are a few Ogston's in the Globe cemetery, Motherwell records but no Mae/Mary McEwan to match with them, sorry.

HISLOP & RUSSELL
There's a request on findagrave for a Janet Russell Hislop.
Having done a bit of noseying, I know that her husband was Adam Hislop and several of their children are in the same lair.
I assume that your photo is for this family.
I'm happy to go take the photo and fulfil the request but I've had a look in the cemetery and couldn't find it.
I'd be grateful if you could give me a step for a hint here! e.g. post your photo here to give me an idea what the memorial looks like?
Thank you.

The photograph was taken 13 years ago, so the actual stone may have been damaged or eroded since then. This picture is quite clear, so no need for me to add the transcription.
From the records for the churchyard (not the cemetery, that adjoins the churchyard) the plot (or lair) book only begins about 1878, so earlier interments are not recorded here but, some are included in the Day Book, this begins about 1861.
Plot Book records the owner, in Victorian times, as Adam Hislop. All the plots in Cambusnethan churchyard were divided up into 3 compartments, the North, the South and the Centre.
All dates are of interment.
In the South -
JANET HISLOP, aged 81 years, 21st January 1902.
In the Centre -
ADAM HISLOP, aged 79 years, 31st December 1891.
ADAM GUTHRIE, aged 8 days, 9th July 1892.
In the North -
- - - - - GUTHRIE, no age given (probably a still birth?) 24th May 1883.
JAMES HISLOP, aged 69 years, 26th June 1911.
Two entries from the gravediggers day book -
WILLIAM HYSLOP, blacksmith, Old Stane, aged 25 years, unmarried.
Parents - Adam Hyslop & Janet Russell.
Interred in the old churchyard on 28th May 1868.
JAMES HISLOP, retired school teacher, Glasgow, aged 69 years, unmarried.
Parents - Adam Hislop & Janet Russell.
Interred in the old churchyard, 26th June 1911.

Many thanks.
I'll go for a nosey soon - I now know roughly where to look.
Such a pity that the old churchyard is in a bit of a state.

Hi Kenny,
There are between 500 - 600 stones there but I think I know, more or less, where this one should be.
I live minutes away from the churchyard, so if you need any help I can meet you there.
-
Hi Lodger
That's very kind of you to offer.
I'll have a nosy first. I'm reasonably familiar with the churchyard but if I get stuck, I'll give you a shout.
I'm in Hamilton, so not far for me.
Thank you again.

Hi Lodger
Found it, thanks to your photo.
Thanks again.

Hi Lodger
Since my first posting on this subject way back in 2011, I have, over the succeeding years, gathered quite a few new pictures and, unfortunately, lost one or two as well!
Here are the new additions and, at the end, the ones I have managed to make disappear from the files![/b]
I am researching the HENDRY, GRAY & KING family group which is included in your list.
Has anyone already asked about this? (I did a search but was unable to locate it, if so) I have Robert Hendry as the son of Robert and Ann (King), married to Margaret Gray (I was thinking she may have been the daughter of James Gray and Helen Swan but I am unable to corroborate this).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks so much!
-
Ard, here is the stone you asked for. Robert Hendry died 27th June 1879 aged 65 years. His wife Margaret Gray died 7th September 1892 aged 74 years. Their son John died 2nd December 1859 aged 2 years. Their daughter Ann King Hendry died 26th October 1942 aged 82 years.
Margaret Gray died in Edinburgh and is registered as Maggie Hendry, mother's maiden surname given as Swan. So you can have a look at the certificate. According to the free index on Scotlandspeople she died in the district of St Giles, so perhaps she was a patient at the Royal Infirmary, Edinburgh?
-
Oh, that is excellent! Thanks so much. I didn't have any of that information.
So Margaret's parents must be James Gray and Helen Swan as I suspected. It's always fun when a hunch is confirmed ;-) Robert's parents Robert Hendry and Ann King. (in case anyone else is researching that family!)
Before John and Ann, Robert sr. and Margaret Gray had Robert King Hendry, James Gray Hendry, William Hendry (1853-1859), Helen S (Swan?) Hendry.
As always,
ard
PS I have now found Margaret's birth record - On Scotland's People, her mother's surname is transcribed as Levan!
