David, some people usually after a while delete the information. It probably is best to just explain it to new people. Frankie just reply again and in the subject line put UNSUBCRIBE That should work for you.

Try emailing.... [email protected] or go to the Renfrew County Council website and follow links. I found Lynn very helpful. Suspect the 1912 one will be at Arkleston Cemetery which opened about then.

how do I do this please Frankie & Phil Letford

Are there any Renfrew cemeteries on-line. Failing that, does anyone know which cemetery my g.grandmother is likely to be buried in? She died Hillington Road, Renfrew 1912 Anne CAMERON and her daughter Drumbuie, Bishopton 1950 Catherine Ann McNAB (nee CAMERON). Who would I contact?

But, the Rootsweb page we all went to and found instructions for signing up to the list still exists and the instructions for 'Unsubscribing' are found on that page as well.

Hi Denise: While on Scotlandspeople tonight, I did a quick search for your Thomas on the '71 census. Found a 17 year old Thomas listed as a farm servant. Maybe him. Take a look at their site. I also checked births for 1854 - 1857. Only two listed in Renfrewshire, none with the parents you listed.

Dear Denise, You don't say where you've looked for the birth. I have family who were from Barrhead as it became known, but at the time they lived there their parish was Neilston. I'm not sure when the name change took place but it might be worth considering surrounding parishes.

Hi Listers, I am new to this list so please bear with me. I am searching for the birth or christening of Thomas McDonald b1856c.

Hello Denise, There is a family in Barrhead in 1861 census which looks like yours. Neil McDonald age 35, daughter Isabella age 10, son Thomas age 7 and daughter Catherine age 4. The mother was not included, maybe she was away visiting someone at that time. It may be worth trying to check 1871 census if anyone has access to it Good luck and keep searching Johan Lochridge Researching Keith, Sharp, McKay, Carswell.

Hi: I was just in Guadalajara, Mexico and saw a tombstone in the oldest cemetery dedicated to Joseph Johnston (b. 1832 in Paisley, Scotland) and his wife Jean Young (b. 1838 in Paisley, Scotland). They both died in 1896 - he died in May and she died in September. Is anyone researching the Johnston family? If so - I'd love to send a photo of the headstone - there's a fascinating story connected to the Johnston couple. Heather Hess (Canada) Cualli Tonalli!
