Cambusnethan Cemetery Grave Search - Part 2

[Lodger]

Sorry, the information was taken from the Plot Owners book, which doesn't record parents names. The Day Book, which does record parents names, hasn't survived for the old churchyard between 1861 and 1907.
You would have to check her death certificate on Scotlandspeople.

Hi Sancti,

It appears that our friend Lodger is off sunning himself on the Costa del Sol (even though he would have us all believe he's working  ) so I have some Cambusnethan records from way back and can help you out with this one.

PATRICK WILSON, occupation Screeman, resident Newmains, aged 19 yrs and single was interred in Common Ground 23 Dec 1880...parents Thos Wilson and Alice Convoy.

also buried in Common Ground for the same parents...

Regards, Sage

Hi everyone,

First time poster! But i'm hoping someone might be able to help me track down some family records relating to the Todds in the Cambusnethan/Wishaw area.

I'm after any information on Thomas Todd possibly born around 1790/1971. The 1841 census show's him age 50 living with wife Margaret (or Mary) Todd nee Baird and children Mary, Margaret, Thomas, John and William Todd. His occupation was a 'surfaceman' which I think is related to the Railway although an earlier records show him to be a farm servant/agricultural labourer at Glenochar (?).

On Dec 30th 1842 they had a further son David Todd who I'm also hopeful of finding burial records for. He was a Railway Porter/Pointsman and lived in Railway Station House, Wishaw (or Wishaw Station House) with his wife Elizabeth Todd nee Hastie. He died there aged just 35 on November 19 1879. Any information on Elizabeth too would be great.

Thanks in advance!!

I am currently visiting the area and am searching for a family member. According to family records
Nicol Hood died at Leslie Place, Newmains 18 Nov 1875, and was Buried 26 Nov at Cambusnethan Cemetery.  Planning to stop by the cemetery tomorrow but understand its near impossible to find a stone there.  Is there a good way to find a record of his burial there and where his stone may be located? I am new to this but very excited to learn!
