Welcome to Rootschat Graham.

Just wanted to say thanks for your group's efforts at Warriston.
Groups like yours do amazing work which not only helps preserve the graveyards but are an enormous help to researchers. 
Unsung heroes!

Hello,

3 of my ancestors are buried (near together) in Warriston Cemetery Y 609 is the Place called, i have a map also, that shows it. Susanne Kuhn, Wilhelm Kuhn and Victor Mathias Schnitzler, are the Names . Could somebody who is living nearby take a picture for me?

Kind regards
Brigitte

Hi Brigitte.

Have you contacted our group via the website yet? We also have a Facebook page.

Parts of section 'Y' are quite overgrown with, mostly, ground ivy and some stones were displaced for some reason when it was still in private hands. This was years before Edinburgh council purchased the site in 1994. Lair numbers are not always in numerical order. For instance 609 is flanked by 121 and 368. So a little investigative work will need to be done. If there is no stone in place or can't be located amongst the displaced markers it might be possible to take photos of the grave area.

Regards,
Graham.
