Title: An address on a death certificate
Post by: colcal on Tuesday 06 January 26 10:56 GMT (UK)

Happy New Year to all.
I am trying to find a family member that could still be living.  He registered his father's death in 1977 but unfortunately I cannot decipher the address on the entry.
I would be grateful for any help
Kind regards colcal

Edited to remove name since he may still be alive.

We are not allowed to post information about living people on rootschat.  Really you should not have his name and address visible and should remove the image

Have you tried looking for the street name on here

Google says there is a Skirsa Square in Glasgow

I searched for Skerea which was close enough to find it.

There's nothing left of Skirsa Square now (except its name) - I think it was the late 80's when it was demolished. It was just off of Balmore Road near the Western Necropolis and St Kentigerns cemetery.
