sinclair family port dundas
« on: Monday 18 April 11 17:17 BST (UK) »
Hi All,
          trying to find any living family members I have in Glasgow.
1 Annie Sinclair, married to alfie rayner.
2 matthew sinclair married to Helen weir in 1929
3 Richard sinclair b 1907?
4 Martha b 1911
5 George b 1900
6. James lived in newhall st

I know that all these individuals will no longer be living but how could I go about tracing any of their children???

                Thanks in advance, Rab.

Which street were the family in on the 1901 Census?

I was born @ 158 North Spiers Wharf (canal master's house)  in Port Dundas.  I don't remember that name off hand.

Hi Fifer,
             thanks for the reply, the family lived at 34 Broomhall street in the 1911 census, the steet changed it's name to Kissock st later on.
Annie had a restaurant/ cafe on Hydepark street near the clyde. This sinclair fammily's parents came from Fife. Are there Fife connections with you Fifer!!
             
                  regards, Rab.

Sorry no connection with Fife other than I lived there for some years.  ;D

I can't see Kissock Street or Broomhall Street in Port Dundas  :-\  although there is still a Broomhall Street next to Petershill Park off the Springburn Road (which is a fair distance from Port Dundas).  Maybe someone else will have better luck, sorry.
