Lanarkshire / Re: Section 13 Dalbeth
« on: Wednesday 27 July 16 00:57 BST (UK) »
Hi
I would like to locate my grandmother's grave in St Peter's Dalbeth from 1947. I think it is Section 13 Division W. and have a four digit lair number, but the age on this burial record isn't right (it's noted her age as that when she was married on the burial record- not the age I know she was when she died eight years later, which I assume is an error by someone looking at the marriage cert whilst registering) so I can't be 100% sure it's her burial record. There doesn't seem to be a connection between the burial record and the death cert number, or is there a way of searching using this?
I'm sure this record is her as the burial record is recorded as 17 days after her death and she is the only person of that name (incl. variants) to die and be buried in Glasgow within the six months following her known date of death. That is according to the records I have searched on ScotlandsPeople and using info on my family copies of her birth, marriage & death certificate.
I don't think there is a headstone there and would like to place one or replace the remains of the one there. Is this possible? Will it be easy to locate on site?
I live within 20miles of the cemetery so I plan to visit the cemetery to arrange this myself in the coming weeks. Any advice you can give would be gratefully received, especially in dealing with the cemetery.
