Lanarkshire / Re: Steelworks in Motherwell?
« on: Wednesday 03 July 24 14:17 BST (UK)  »
The melting shop personnel worked in the Lanarkshire Steel Company
The Lanarkshire Steel Works (the Shire) was between Flemington and Craigneuk
on the Wishaw Road. I can be sure about the location as I served my time as an
Apprentice Electrician in the steelworks before moving on.
1962 to 1963. Junior steel production trainee
1963 to 1967. Apprentice Electrician
1967 to 1969. Electrician
1969. Off to greener fields

Further research of my Miller family has led me to Baillieston previously in Old Monklands parish. I found a Lees family connection address given c.1850 as Lawson Land Baillieston.
So far I have been unable to locate Lawson Land (or Row) amid hundreds of pit rows houses that are shown in Baillieston maps between 1850 to 1900.
Has anyone any information or suggestions on how I can find this information?
PS. Although I was born and brought up in Motherwell, by pure coincidence, I now live in Garrowhill which caused a lot of Old Baillieston to disappear when it was built.

Since I first asked if anybody could help me with my Craigneuk Miller family information the response has been great. Some of the detailed information provided makes me think that some others in the wider Miller family has been compiling their own family tree. I would love to make contact with them to exchange family information. Be great if you get in touch DM
PS. Monica's input has been very helpful

Hi folks.
I'm receiving information on my Miller family that ties in with the little information I've gleaned so far. Thanks to all who've responded in such a short time

PS. I'm new to this website so I may not get back as quickly as I'd like
