Robert Brownlee
« on: Thursday 31 July 25 00:31 BST (UK) »
Hello
I an looking for Robert Brownlee, Born 1840 Died 11 May 1898. Married to Mary Graham, she was born 1853 in Torphichen and died in Edinburgh 1949. Robert Brownlee is a son of Alexander Brownlee  born 1802 and died at Headlesscross Mains 1867. I know they are buried at Bathgate cemetery. Can someone tell me where or how to find the headstones?
Also any other information on Robert, I know he was a farmer at Hall Torbane. I did find a book of clydsdales and it mentions a Robert Brownlee as a Breeder from Bathgate and I am wondering if anyone has any information on that as well.
Thank you Turner

There is a record for a Robert Brownlee  1898 on www.findagrave.com
Membership is free and you can request a photo

There is also a tree on Ancestry with a photo if you have access

Thank you
I have the picture and I have seen it on find a grave. I am signed into find a grave but when I try a message the manager, it wants me to sign in again, when I do it says can't sign in.

I was hoping someone on here could tell me where in Bathgate cemetery Robert and Mary's headstones are. Or is there a map somewhere n I could get or access. I was there 3 years ago and never found it. I am going back in 3 weeks and was really hoping for some help locating the headstones.
They are my Great Grandparents

Thank you
Turner

West Lothian Council are the local authority responsible for Bathgate Cemetery and maintain records
related to burials and grave ownerships.  Perhaps a phone call might help you.

There is a facebook page for West Lothian Family History Society who may help.

Would you have a phone number?
I tried to go on the Facebook page, but it won't let me send them a message

Thanks
