St Joseph's Cemetery, Airdrie

Hello Tony, I wondered if this is what you are looking for?

There's a death on ScotlandsPeople for a Catherine Boyle, age 0, in 1956, and the registration district is Aidrie / New Monkland which would include Plains.    There's nothing for a Kathleen with a K.

It might be worth looking at the certificate on line, because that will give you her parents' names and you'll know if they are your grandparents or not.

To view it, go to Scotland's People by clicking the link sancti gave.  You need to register to search, but that costs nothing.    Once you have you'll need to purchase credits, but the smallest purchase of 30 credits will cover what you need for this, with plenty over.

You want to search 'Deaths' (3rd from the top on the left hand menu) and put in Catherine Boyle, 1956, then select Lanark as the county and Aidrie as the town.  It should come up as '1 record, cost 1 credit to view'.  Agree and you will get what I just saw, showing a GROS (reference number) of 651/00 0257.   Click on 'View (5 credits)' and it will show you the certificate

Oops. collision with Sancti, but we both have the same details.  Good luck

Hey it was Kathleen and it was 1957. Nothing for that ?

[Maggie1895]

No.   You did say originally that is was 'about 60 years ago' and also that she was taken away and her poor parents didn't know what had happened.
Would advise you to look at Catherine Boyle's death certificate to check the parents names and at least rule it out.

Sorry Tony, the 'No' sounded a bit abrupt.
I've just double checked and there is no record of any death for a newborn baby girl named K Boyle in Aidrie between 1950 and 1960.

Hey don't worry about that. I have just called my mum it was 1956 and on the certificate it was 1956. I am just wondering and pray that it's going to tell me the plot number where she is. Do you know if it will before I pay to see it ? Many thanks

And it was Catherine Boyle

Hang on Tony before you pay to view.   Did I read that correctly?  You mother already has the certificate, or is it that she knew it was 1956?
If your mother already has the death certificate, don't pay to view because all you will see is the same thing    We didn't realise you already had the details when we went searching
A death certificate in 1956 isn't likely to give you a cemetery and plot number.   Take a look at the very detailed posts Monica has put on 'links to Lanarkshire resources'  (first topic on the Lanarkshire board)    The 3rd and 4th post down give you a huge number of places to search.
Odd that, this is the 2nd time I've suggested that post to someone today!

I have went and paid for it. That is her death certificate. I am really confused now sorry. What do I need to do to find a plot number? Sorry i was not sure of your last message.
