Crematorium books of remembrance

Post by Tom-W » Sat Oct 14, 2006 5:49 pm

Found the following site which has on-line images of the Books of remembrance from 3 scottish crematoria - Daldowie, Linn and Masonhill (plus a number in England)

Thanks for this Tom. I think anyhow :roll: .....just found 4 possible (and 2 of them very likely) family members memorialized at Masonhill :D

Best wishes

How did you get past the "Enter" page. I'm trying to get to Daldowie page but just keeps going back to Enter page. I did install the Flash player they asked for.

I got there once, but couldn't find out how to register either. Now I can't even get that far.

Hi Mary

Ummmm.....the Masonhill one alllows searching by Surname....and the Daldowie one only lets you search by date. Too bad! (Unless of course you know the date a loved one passed on!) Just click the buttons on the left of the screen to search after you've entered the site. I must have already had the viewer as I didn't need to download and it worked fine. Maybe you need to reboot if you just downloaded something new?

Best wishes

Tom W

Thank you for posting that site.

Having recently lost my father, I would just like to say that it is quite expensive to have a name put in the book of remembrance. Also it is not something that you automatically think of doing when a loved one passes on. So if your rellie isn't there, don't think the family didn't care about them. :shock:
