Dressed Ground
« on: Wednesday 29 May 24 18:12 BST (UK) »
I am looking up burial records at Sandymount cemetery in Glasgow.
In final column most say nothing others say common ground and others dressed ground.
Can anyone advise what is meant by dressed ground and would that lair be purchased for a family ?
