Dogs are only a small part of the problem.  The dog owners are the main problem. ???

Anyone willing to look up graves in Milltown. I'm here in Canada doing some family history and I know that my grandad and grandmother, as well as my sisters are all buried in Milltown. Sadly since my mum is no longer with us, I have no way of knowing where their graves, let alone the exact deathdates are. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers

The Milltown Cemetery site.
 
http://www.milltowncemetery.com/
 
 
If you P.M.  me with names, death location (street) and approx dates I will see if I can get the details from the Belfast Records Office.   For the census forms for 1901 and 1911 go to nationalarchieves.ie .

 :hi: :hi: Hello Bernard    Don,t know your age bracket but I knew of a Hillick family  who lived in the Carrick Hill area, I think the next street along from Unity St.
             If this is the family you are looking for then put a post onto " Who do you know from Carrick Hill " There are lots of the older generations on there who would probably know your family
               Regards      johnmc.
 ps   I would need a good memory jog to remember the streets there.

There are two sets of books for Milltown cemetery - the General Books for bought graves and the Public books for paupers graves.  You must not forget the the graves (80,000) were 40 deep and that an approx location for the graves can be worked out from the map.  The Belfast records office has good records from the opening of Milltown to about the 1920's.   :)

Update for all Concerned:
 
Infant Burials have been uncovered in Trench 49 currently being excavated in Milltown.  Small Coffins intact have been uncovered by NAC conducting the works.  Trench 49 is located within the six acres returned to the Ownership of the Diocese.
 
The Findings will be logged and Photographed as proof of the Burials.  No Name Plates are present which would assist in confirming the exact Grave Number.  Works are still in progress at present.  Nothing will be removed or disturbed within Trench 49 it will be filled in as soon as the Testing has been completed by NAC.
