Bowhill Cemetery - Cardenden

[Pato131]

Hi, A few days ago I visited Bowhill Cemetery at Cardenden looking for my ancestors and took many photos.  In the area of the Bowhill Memorial I noticed a headstone for a George Paterson who died 6th June 1925 but unfortunately did not take a snap of this.

Since arriving home in Nottingham I now realise this George Paterson was my husband's great Uncle who was tragically killed at Dundonald Colliery.

Is there anyone who may live in the town who could take a photograph of the headstone? 

Hope you can help.

Rosie have you had any success with this yet?  I note you posted this back in September.  I visit Cardenden often because my partner's family lives there, just wanted to check whether you have since been able to get a photograph.

Hi Jo

Thank you for your reply. If it's not too much trouble we would love a photo of the headstone if you can find it. We won't be visiting in that area for a long time. Also we found out his parents must be buried nearby too if you can spot them.

George Paterson  died 6th June 1925  aged 38

Parents:
William Paterson died 7 Jan 1920 aged 55
Helen (Sutherland) Paterson  died 2nd April 1922  aged 57

Thank you for your trouble. I have left my details in a Personal Message

Hi Rosie, got your details. 

Next time I'm there I'll go have a look for you and see what I can do (weather permitting). 

I'm not so mobile as I once was due to arthritis in both hips, but nevertheless will gladly go hunting for you because I might find some connected to my partner's family as well.  This cemetery is long overdue a visit by me.

Thank you Jo.  Take care!
