Lanarkshire / Re: St Joseph's Cemetery, Airdrie

Hi there - what an amazing project - I'm in awe of it!  I wondered if there were any Mcfaddens (sometimes alternate spellings of the surname were used)  buried in St Josephs Airdrie, pre 1875?  As I know my McFaddens worked there intermittently, and may in particular have had children who died that I'm not aware of.

If this is too general/time consuming a request, then apologies, and no need to feel obliged to respond  :)

Scotland / Re: Cheaper Scran?
« on: Tuesday 22 November 11 15:04 GMT (UK)  »
Don't some public libraries have scran subscriptions?  Pretty sure a relative got some copies of scran pictures on disc from a library pc, but it was a while ago, so I may be mistaken.  Sorry to be so vague.

Hi there, if anyone could help by letting me know the text of the entry/any witness names for the marriage of Richard Rhodes to Ann Robinson at Clent on 3 June 1798, I'd be v. grateful.  Thanks for any help  :)

James Graham was made provost of Airdrie in 1824 if that helps.

Lanarkshire / Re: Bothwell area newspapers
« on: Monday 14 March 11 10:54 GMT (UK)  »
I think  ??? the Airdrie & Coatbridge Advertiser included the Bothwell area in the regional news section, but if so it would most likely only be a summary report at best, rather than detailed coverage.  You can consult the films of the Airdrie papers at Airdrie Library, but I'm not sure what dates are available.  They are amazingly helpful/knowledgeable there, so might have suggestions of other sources, too.

Lanarkshire / Re: Glasgow Hospital Records Access Query

Thank you so much!  I'll call round to see my neighbour tonight to get the ball rolling, and hopefully this will mean he'll eventually be able to get some closure on this issue.  Really grateful for your help, I know he'll be so pleased that another option has opened up that he can pursue.  Many, many thanks.

Lanarkshire / Glasgow Hospital Records Access Query
« on: Thursday 25 November 10 13:28 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, it isn't really a question of genealogy, but I'm trying to help an elderly neighbour - he is puzzled by very hazy memories of quite extensive medical treatment that he had when he was very young, and would like to know what was wrong with him, if that makes sense. 

He's tried to access his own medical records and his school records for clues, but as he, his parents and siblings left the country for several years, these early records seem to have been destroyed.  Unfortunately he was so young that he can't really remember what forms the treatment he had took, so we can't deduce anything from that, and he has no living relatives still around from those days that he could ask.

The only thing he is positive about is that he was hospitalised in Glasgow, he thinks probably GRI, and he puts the date of hospitalisation at around the late 20s/very early 30s.  Does anyone know if patient admissions or other details from this era are available, and if so, can they be accessed by post or consulted in person?  Many thanks for reading this, and for any suggestions or confirmation that the records have perished.
