Scotland / Re: removal of paupers to ireland
« on: Wednesday 13 June 12 23:07 BST (UK)  »
Have to disagree: my Gt Gt Grandfather, John Dunlop has this final entry in his application

'30/1/91 Warrant obtained for removal to Ballymoney Ireland. 31/1/91leaving + won’t return'

despite having lived in Glasgow for 41 years!

There is a register of stillbirths, but it can't be accessed, even if you go to Edinburgh.

Lanarkshire / Re: glasgow street directories early 1900's

Hi,
the problem with PO Directories is that they only really reliably list businesses, and even then, not all. The valuation rolls are a better source of the tenants name. If someone was going to the Mitchell in Glasgow, they might be able to look this up for you. Even then, there could be perhaps 25 families staying at this address.

Ah ha,

But no relevant records or divorce records...
However, it gives you the catalogue numbers. With these you can contact them for copies.
