How do I find my great-aunts grave - scotland

[bobby66]

Hi Billy - thought I was getting somewhere - have phoned lots of folks and only the Crematorian Society could tell me she definately wasn't cremated.  Glasgow Council says they will search which will be at a cost of £12.36 per half hour - am willing to pay but thought before I forked out more money I'd post a look up request.  Actually  think I may have subsidised all the councils in scotland for family research over the last six months.  Everyone has been very helpful but basically keep getting sent to the Mitchell Library.  Do you think it's best to just give them more money - would that be an easier route - don't want to cause anyone any more work than they need.  It's Agnes Young died at 48 Gallowgate in Glasgow on 1st July 1929 (murdered by an insane seaman).  Her residential address was 116 Drygate, Glasgow.  Unfortunately I wouldn't know one area of Glasgow from another so have no idea what cemetaries are in the area.  All advise welcome.  I think I've pretty much hit panic mode since we're getting so close and I can't get any time off work before july to get the the Library myself.  Eva

Dear Eva,
Hello, your posts popped up when I was searching so have signed up.

Please forgive any intrusion but I wondered if you had tracked down Agnes Young’s last resting place since your last post? – I know it was a long time back, some years now. It’s an incredibly long shot but my family have been trying to trace an Agnes of our own for 10 yrs to no avail and I wonder whether she may have changed her name (due to some skeletons we think)– there is no record of her death etc anywhere and she disappears from the record in the early 1920’s (was born Falkirk). Every attempt to trace her has failed. Many of the details match the account of your Agnes such as similar age range, likely whereabouts and so on and little available info on her early life – I just wondered whether was a chance they might just be one and the same? – long shot I know…..
I wondered if you might have a picture I might look at? - I'd be so very grateful if . The Agnes I am looking for is my Great-Grandmother and my Mother has tried so hard to find her and just kept hitting a wall.

All the best, Kate
