Thank you for this. I guess the cemetery is located in Prestonpans and is called Prestonpans Cemetery. I don't see an address though and I can't seem to see it on the map.

Hi,
I am going to Scotland and wanted to find the Prestonpans Cemetery in Prestonpans East Lothian, Scotland.  Does anyone have an address or know where it is located in Prestonpans? I can't seem to find it on the map and when I google search it. It just shows Cemetery Road, but where?
And how is the best way of getting there from Edinburgh?

Looking for the plot of Elizabeth Fargie Hooker, born 1900-1961

I'd appreciate any help. Thanks - Joy

Lanarkshire / Re: sandymount cemetery section O help

Thank you so much for the information and map. This will help a great deal in my search.

Just one questions?  The directions say to take bus service 40 travelling in the direction of Easterhouse and it will pass the rear pedestrian entrance of the cemetery on Mansionhouse Drive.  Which entrance is that? I don't see it on the map. Is it the Hallhill entrance? Just wondering. Would you happen to know the bus stop for the cemetery?

And on an un-related subject, what is the cost for the bus?

Thanks so much - Joy

Hi,
I am researching my great grandmothers grave in Sandymount Cemetery in Glasgow. I am planning on looking for it when I go to visit in July/Aug. Her grave is located in section R and I have the lair #.

I am traveling by bus to the cemetery from the center of Glasgow city. I think bus service 40? will take me to the Hallhill entrance?  Is there a closer entrance to section R? and how would I get there?

Also, are the plots numbered somehow. How do we find the lair number? not sure if there is a stone marking or not.

Thanks for any help. - Joy

United States of America / Re: Look up - John Fargie Lyle
« on: Sunday 12 June 16 03:09 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
I noticed you were looking up John Fargie Lyle 1889, who married Jessi Esson Croall.

Well, doing my research he shows up on my Fargie family tree. It looks like his grandfather is John Fargie 1837 who is married to Elizabeth Andrew. John is the brother to my gggrandfather William Fargie 1835 who married a Catherine. I am a descendant from their son Robert Fargie 1866, his son David Fargie is my grandfather.

John Fargie and Elizabeth had a daughter Mary Fargie, 1859 who married a Quentin Lyle, 1857

I would be interested in discussing further and comparing notes and info.

Fife / Re: Mary Moir (Muir) married James Fargie in 1803 Dalgety

Hi Tina,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I think this makes us cousins!!! This is so exciting!
My bloodline is from William, brother of your James. He married Catherine Fargie and had my Great Grandfather Robert, who married Helen Bennett and had my grandfather David.

I have some of the Preston family on my family tree, but it ends with George and Euphemia's list of six children. Which child are you descended from? I hope you can help me fill in the blanks.  Do you live in Scotland?
Feel free to contact me directly: joydmaine@yahoo.com

I look forward to hearing from you again.
Regards, Joy

Hi,
I am a descendant from James Fargie (1781) and Mary Moir. Their son William Fargie (1806) is my GGGF. His son William (1835) had a son Robert (1866) and his son David (1904) is my grandfather.
Is anyone related to James, William(s) or Robert at all?
I would appreciate any information anyone would have on the Fargie Family.
Thank you, Joy
