  • Address: Interred in common ground

    From Jim Leonard - 'The reason that Margaret who died in 1908 was sent back to Cambusnethan for burial was that paupers had

    to have 7 years residency in the parish before they could claim poor relief. Margaret obviously didn't have

    enough residency in Bellshill (Bothwell parish) so Cambusnethan parish had to "Accept Liability" (the phrase

    used in the original claims).'
