In November 1880, the Saint Andrew’s Society of Albany purchased a lot in the Albany Rural Cemetery for the burial of poor Scotsmen. A memorial was erected in the front section of the lot where all the graves are located in their honor. Thomas McCredie, a native of Glasgow, Scotland, donated the monument.
