Hi Paul

I think Gerry Farrell is your man to talk to. He seems to do a lot in Old Dalbeth so should be able to give some advice. As it's OD there may not be any headstones though as not many survived. Good luck

Davie

Hi Davie,

Thanks for your reply. Not sure I can send a PM at present so hopefully Gerry will see my request and get in touch. I don't expect we'll locate any headstone but just to be able to find a location where the grave is would be great.

Regards,

Paul.

Hello,

I'm new to the site and have enjoyed reading many of the various threads so far.

I'm a McGuire and have been doing a lot of family research in recent years. I have recently discovered my McGuire and McGrory/McGroary relatives have two graves in Old Dalbeth and was hoping to visit the old graveyard later this week to try and locate the place where they are buried. Some great work has already gone in to listing those named on headstones and I really appreciate those who have put names, pics, maps etc on here for others to see.

The main grave I'm looking for is West 255 with 257 also likely to have my ancestors buried there. I received the list below from the archdiocese of Glasgow but none of the names seem to correspond with those listed on this topic thread. If anyone is able to provide any advice on how best to locate these graves that would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Paul.
