Lanarkshire / Re: Hamilton Old Parish churchyard

Hi Sancti, Yes that is my family. Francis Jr. and Hugh came to Canada and I am descended from Francis. I have come to a dead end in tracing Francis Sr. further. His death certificate lists his father as Francis and his mother as Margaret Burns. It also says he was born in Ayr... any help as to where to look next would be much appreciated!  Ellen

Sancti, thank you for responding so quickly. If you are familiar with this parish can you tell me how I might find more about parish members living in the first half of the 19th century?  I have taken the records available on line (Scottish OPRs, newspaper archives etc) as far as I can. I live in Nova Scotia so if anyone would like be to check on anything for them just email! Thanks Ellen

Sancti, have you seen any tombstones with the name Rice? I have been trying to trace my ancestor Francis Rice who died in Hamilton in 1855. The death record says he was buried in the parish churchyard. I wondered if you have come across him? He might be near the Burns you posted as his mother was Margaret Burns. Just thought I would ask!
