Olduser; 

I do not have a map but found that Colin, who runs this site http://www.southernnecropolis.com is very responsive to queries.  Colin has access to lair records and maps and was most helpful a couple of years ago in finding a monument for me.

You could also try the appropriate department at Glasgow City Council, here http://www.Glasgow.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=5157
NEILSON - Erskine/Bishopton, Renfrewshire and Glasgow
BROWN - Hamilton, Lanarkshire
CAIRNS - Hamilton, Lanarkshire
FINDLAY - Kirriemuir area, Forfarshire/Angus
PORTER - Tobermore, Derry, Ireland
