I have a copy of Kelly's Directory for Glasgow from 1966, and am happy to do any look-ups for anybody.

Hi,
I would like to take you up on the offer for a lookup of the Kelly's directory. I am afraid I only have the name, James Donnelly and the area code 645/03, I got the information from S.P for his death, as he died in 1966.
kind regards colcal
-
Hi, there are 31 James Donnellys recorded - do you have any other information from other records to narrow it down?
Chris

Hi, I'm afraid I don't have much to go on at all. The family is so elusive it's really driving me mad! All I know is Hugh and Sarah Ann Donnelly had 5 children Mary 1900, Sarah 1904, Rose Ann 1906 James 1909 and Martin 1910. I have tried marriage and death certificates for all of them but the only hit I got was James (if it is him) who died in 1966 Glasgow/Lanark. The family all lived in the areas of Bridgeton, Carlton and Govan.
Thank you for replying
regards colcal

Hi, i was wondering if there are any O'Hare's on the list?

Chris

Wonder if you have a chance could look up what I hope will be less common names:
Elizabeth McIlroy
Rebecca (or Ruby) McIlroy
Jean (Jane/Jeannie) McIlroy
-
Thanks Chris,
Are there any O'Hare's called Terence / Terry?
Do you know how can I get a copy of this directory?

Hi Chris
Could you please look for a John Lynch for me.
He was a Stone Mason.
Thanks
Nessie
-
21 John Lynchs recorded, but none as a stonemason or builder.
Chris
-
No terence or Terry O' Hares. The directories can be consulted at the Mitchell Library.
Chris
-
Thanks for trying Chris
If you have time could you do a check for George Lynch (John's son) also a Stonemason, I never thought John would have been retired in 1966.

Hi Chris I was wondering if you have a look at 77 Fordneuk Street I am looking for the last know address of my great grandmother Winifred Watson Fleming. Its a very long shot as I know that she was there in 1934.
With grateful thanks
Tracy

Sorry Tracy, no sign of her there or in the alphabetical listing. The numbering starts at 91 on Fordneuk Street also, possibly the earlier numbers had been demolished or that part of the street renamed?

im looking 4 a john anderson address 64 rosemount street glasgow,1999,last known at this address 1978
-
Although the street is there now, it does not seem to have existed back in 1966, as it is not listed in the directory, despite the fact that Roystonhill, which is adjacent, is in the book. There's a whole page of John Andersons, too many to list. Any additional info, such as occupation?

Hi
Can you look up Marjory Burns (nee Doherty) wife of James Burns living in the Springburn area
Thanks Greendoor
-
Not without a street name, sorry - too many entries.
Chris
-
I think she might have lived at Balmore Road Springburn
-
Just checked, and there are no Dohertys or Burns names listed for Balmore Road.
Chris
-
Many thanks for lookin
-
Hi Chris

Again, no -one there with those names.
Chris
