Hi Ane jane  I am not researching Lithuanians in Glasgow but have a copy of a really good book by T.M. DEVINE "The Scottish nation 1700-2000 which has a lot of general info' about Lithuanian immigrants, where they worked, why they came etc , Its well worth a look at this book for any Scottish research. I am sure your local library can obtain it for you good luck

Hi Jane,

I am researching Lithuanians ancestors, although not in Glasgow.
If you can publish some names, and dates of immigration here, I'll keep an eye out for them on my "travels".

Good Luck !
Bob
