Hi Dave,
Is Rutherglen on the right side of town for you - just asking?
If it is, would love a photo of the railway station, which my father-in-law took great pride in keeping in spic and span order way back when - Used to win prizes for it I believe. I wonder what it looks like now.
They lived in semidetached houses on high side of main road in Rutherglen - near the road going up a steep hill to some park or other - how's that for a good description  - I've been there years ago but can't remember any names - or . . . maybe Stonelaw Road - would that be it? - dredged up from the depths of memory. If R'glen is the wrong side no matter!
Cheers,
Wiggy

Bugger!
Passed through Rutherglen coming back from York Meet on Wednesday!
I wouldn't normally have any reason to go to Rutherglen but if weather keeps up, I might make a wee trip. A short train journey gets me there.
I have a long list of places to go but will get to them all eventually.
You are correct with Stonelaw Road. It runs off the beginning of Main St - very much changed since I was there last.
Dave

Never too late Alison as long as you don't mind a wait.
Braeside St is off Maryhill Road which is north of the city.
Other end of town from me but not too hard to get to.
Will send you a PM.
Dave

At an early age of 3-4yrs I remember living in Killdonan drive. The street will do. I moved to 62 Grant street, Just off Georges road Front and back of that house would be great, i have many fond memories of that house. I use to walk to Willow bank primary school which i do believe is now an Asian school. I have many more address's but have to ask my eldest brother if he can remember them. Thank you so much. I dont live in Scotland any more, Sadly. So what you are doing is a god send.
