First the ones with no results - sorry.
No Edgars, no Brysons, no Dormans (2nd time I've looked for this).

Dave,

Thanks very much for having a look.  Much appreciated. Sorry haven't replied sooner.

I'll go back bryson.
Missed some the first time and found Millers 2nd visit.  Not a huge cemetery but some were covered with mown grass / dirt and I had to clear it away.
Still planning to go to Southern Necropolis and Sighthill.
Will visit other churchyards in Glasgow but weather is Cr*p here.  I would rather go on a day I feel comfortable.
Dave

Much appreciated but please only inforporate it into something you are already doing and don't make a special trip.  Particulary this time of year!

Literally just signed up to Ancestry.co.uk and found great grandfathers records on 2nd hit. So far impressed!

thanks again.

Totally selfish me!
I'll be visiting for ME ME ME.
Seriously though, it is no effort to look for other names. 
I will not go out of my way to look for names that aren't connected to my tree.  However, I've written down names of certain bods on RC on the off chance that I'll find something worthwhile for them.
I put a separate post on RC a while back about Sighthill and was a wee bit cheeky - I basically said, no guessing. 
I'm kinda prattling here, which is my wont.
Long story short, if I see a familiar name when I'm hunting, I'll take the photo and write it down.
Cathcart was easy, very small.
Prattle prattle blah blah
 :D :D :D

OOPS!

I'll try again.

Apart from the Millers, where we got a result, I think I misled you all.
Wrong cemetery!

Thanks to Rita!

I'm going to look at the other cemetery as soon as I can.

I'll take all your names again and hopefully get a result this time.

I feel really embarrassed!  :-[ :-[ :-[

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the Edgar photo.  I don't know this one but who knows worth some research.  Thanks for your help.
