The Old Rose Garden Lair Records are held by Glasgow City Archives at the Mitchell Library in Glasgow
(around 1882 Glasgow Council, in widening Rutherglen Road gained control of the Burial ground and many of the deceased were re interred in the Southern Necropolis)

Very interesting read thank you! It seems all (or an attempt at most) of the bodies were reinterred at the southern necropolis. Perhaps unmarked for many. I guess even if I can’t find a record, they’re probably at the southern necropolis now.
