Cambusnethan Cemetery Grave Search - Part 1

[sage]

Hi Lodger,

Thanks for the Sandilands info...you were right, Wm Sandilands died in 1902 aged 68.  His parents (for anyone interested) were James Sandilands, a shepherd and Jane Scott.

Thanks again,

Heather.

Hi Lodger,

I was wondering if you might have anything in the cemetery records for Patrick Keenan (parents Hugh Keenan & Hannah McCarten) who died 19 Sep 1898...also his wife Agnes whom he predeceased. 

Her surname should be Haughy/Haughey and yet his death cert says her surname was McGhee.  I don't know when she died...just hoping it's not btwn 1901 & 1906 when there's a gap in the records.  Any other burials with this couple would be appreciated also.

With thanks,

Heather.

Hi Lodger,

I'm unsure if you can help me, but I will give it a try I have several branches of my family tree that lived and died in Cambusnethan. Would you have any info on the burial place of  a John Ferguson (parents James ferguson/Margaret Malthy) m to Margaret Hodge (parents George Hodge/Mary Anderson). They may have died possibly early 1800's.
One of their sons was John Ferguson m Jean Frame (d:1841).
John/Jean's son Arthur Ferguson m Agnes Morton. I believe they all lived and died in Cambusnethan.

If you have any info in your book it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Lodger,

Hi Heather,

Looks as if Patrick could have had a pauper's burial, he's not in the Day Book and I don't have the  paupers records for that period.  I did find Agnes, she is buried in a private lair with people called Mollahan. She may have just been a friend or neighbour, it was quite common to do that but I will list their details in case they are related.

2 early paupers burials first -

JAMES KEENAN. Newmains, aged 21 months.
Parents - Patrick Keenan and Agnes Haughey.
Interred in public ground 7th February 1866.

JAMES MOLLAHAN. Furnace filler, Newmains, aged 28 years, single.
Parents - Thomas Mollahan and Mary Crow.
Interred in public ground 22nd January 1868.

AGNES KEENAN, Newmains, aged 53 years, widow.
Parents - Peter Haughey and Rose Ann McGhie.
Interred in Section E463. 30th April 1901.

MARY MOLLAHAN.  Newmains, aged 70 years, widow.
Father - Edward Crow.
Interred in Section E463.  13th February 1900.

JOHN MOLLAHAN. Furnace filler, Newmains, aged 54 years, single.
Parents - Thomas Mollahan and Mary Crow.
Interred in Section E463. 19th September 1900.

Nathania,

I will need more information than just one name. Impossible to search without his mother's maiden surname. His wife's name (and maiden surname would help too).
 A rough time-period would also help.

Cazz,

No information on ANY of these people, sorry.
