Earl of Elgin & Kincardine Ancestry Glasgow

This morning I visited Eastwood Old Cemetery, Glasgow, Scotland and took a short video clip of this fascinating and historic burial ground. The video provides an overview of this well kept cemetery. At the end the camera focus on a box like building which appears to be the mausoleum for members of the Earl of Elgin & Kincardine's family.

A plaque records that Thomas, Earl of Elgin & Kincardine, had a daughter, Harriet Maxwell who died August 21st 1857. Harriet was the wife of Sir John Maxwell. The inscription is in poor condition.
