Hi,
    if you look on Scotlandspeople for a death date before 1855 it will be a mortcloth payment. If you get the extract for that person you have access to the whole page. At the top of the page are payments made to the Church, proclamations for marriage, the one I was interested in was Elizabeth Thomson died 1841 mortcloth payment of 4/-. I had a look at the proclamation and noticed that it said so and so from west Parish, so and so from east parish, one from High parish, and one from south parish. The only fly in the ointment is you don't know what Church the page is from, it could be Wellwynd or Broomknoll, Scotlandspeople don't identify individual Churches with these extracts. What ever Church this extract is from it must have been popular for so many people to come from all over. I wondered if it was Broomknoll.

Hi,
   can anyone help me out with these Churches in Airdrie. I downloaded a "mortcloth" death extract from SP, at the top it gives a list of proclamations of marriage. Some say the person was from the West Parish, or the East Parish, High Parish and others just the place name in Airdrie was the Wellwynd Church any of those above

What Churches were the West, East and High in Airdrie any help most welcome.

Hi,  I believe he was a forester on 'Gartshore Estate' along with his father James ROBERTS, and his father William ROBERTS. I guess this is why William and Ellen ROBERTS (nee PHILMORE), named their 1st born Euphemia Gartshore ROBERTS.
