John Armour Ancestry Tour Glasgow Scotland

This evening, I am presenting an image from Glasgow's Eastwood Old Cemetery which contains some very old memorial stones dating back at least to the early 1800s.

This fallen (recumbent) headstone records the death of John Armour on Dec 31st 1825 age 60 years. His wife was Elizabeth Naismith.

Due to passage of time, the inscriptions are faded and difficult to read.

The Lady Matilda Harriet Maxwell Ancestry Glasgow

This afternoon, I am posting an image of a memorial plaque to The Lady Matilda Harriet Maxwell found on what appears to be the family mausoleum in Eastwood Old Cemetery, Glasgow.

Lady Maxwell was born Sept 23rd 1802 and died August 21st 1857. She was the daughter of Thomas, Earl of Elgin & Kincardine and wife of Sir John Maxwell Bart.

As will be evident from information contained in this link, the family have connections with the famous Elgin marbles.

From my experience it is unusual to find aristocracy buried in Glasgow cemeteries, so this was a nice bonus
