The Gorbals, Glasgow (a place)

[gaucho]

Thanks Gaucho  , I was hoping that Janets 2 and 6 would be hopeful candidates. 6 is ruled out now as I found her married to a non-Finlay 1913. Any ideas where I could buy/view a map where the Gorbals are more clearly defined?
Your sobriquet Gaucho makes me smile  as I grew up in Argentina (my father was in the oil business). I still remember those steaks....

A good overview of the Gorbals can be found in the book "The Gorbals, An illustrated history" by Eric Eunson
