Could anyone help me to find the grave of Alexander Calder? He died on 15/01/1856 in Wick. I have looked around the graveyard on the main road just entering Wick but it doesn`t seem to be there. Perhaps there is an earlier graveyard in Wick but I didn`t have time to look. His widow had to apply for assistance so there may not be a fancy headstone. He was a rope maker in Poultneytown and was only 48 when he died. There was also a daughter Margaret who died in 1857 aged 6. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

There is an earlier graveyard at the church at the top of the turn down to Somerfield store & the big car park. Don't know when the last burial in it was though.
