Title: Street Name on Death Certificate
Post by: Gr8scot227 on Saturday 28 March 20 20:51 GMT (UK): Hello,

I have been trying to decipher the street name on the attached death certificate from Glasgow in 1886. I have looked up the ideas I came up with in street indexes from the time but didn't find any matches.

Can anyone help? It looks like 135 ???? Street.

Thank you!

I had guessed Russford but couldn't find one with that name.

Rumford makes sense as in the 1881 census she lived about a mile away from Rumford.
