My Great Grandmother, Rachel O’Neil had a shop in Barrhead sometime around 1896 - 1928. Unfortunately I have no idea what kind of shop it was or where!
I imagine it would be a ‘grocer’ or sweetie shop and probably named O’Neil’s. She was previously Rachel Boyle but I’m pretty sure she only had the shop when she became and ‘O’Neil’. Rachel lived in Glasgow Rd/Printers Row and then laterally Craigheads St, I’m thinking the shop would be near her home.
I would be grateful if anyone can help with any further information or point me in the right direction To find out more.
