He lived in Coupar Angus when he died as far as I know none of his children lived there and he came from Fife originally but left there in 1930s

There are two main types of cemeteries in Scotland other than churchyards - those run by the local Council's and those run by private companies.

Depending upon where the burial was and how much information you already have most local councils will search their records for you. Some charge a fee for such a search which can be quite hefty. If however you have the lair details many will perform a look up of their records for free or at minimal cost.
I have no idea if he was buried or cremated ...the only information I have is a copy of his death certificate ..
Nothing to go on really  ??? :-\

hi there

looking on www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/ I can't find any archives for as late as 1969.

I will try and contact the local council to where he lived and see if they can help
Thanks

The grave I am looking for is in 1969 in Scotland... My great grandfathers grave ... my grandfather has since passed away although not sure he had contact with his father before he died ...  :( I have a copy of the death cert so know when he died and my parents did go to search the local cemetery although mum discovered this week there are possibly 3 others in the area ...


On another separate grave matter - would a local council be able to tell me who owns a grave?
Thanks again
