Lanarkshire / Re: Finding a graveyard in Coatbridge

sancti the information I have is from John's marriage certificate. He married Mary Reilly in 1906 at All Saints Rochsolloch Airdrie and was aged 25 then.  Their household is listed in the 1911 census at 14 Stone Rows Old Monkland where he is aged 32 so his approximate birth date I have presumed to be 1880 and this is verified by checking his fathers household on the 1901 census where he is aged 22 and recorded as born in Ireland . I have a good trace on most of the family but cannot establish any details for Johns death. It may of course have been a war death but again I have no information to verify this. Still its fun trying to puzzle it out.

St Joseph's in Airdrie was opened in 1860 for New & Old Monkland and stills serves that Catholic Community in Airdrie and Coatbridge. Im transcribing the lair books at present, but Im at 1866 at the moment. North Lanarkshire Council Archives office have the books for that year. You can get them here...
