Buteshire / Rothesay Livingstone family
« on: Thursday 28 May 09 22:58 BST (UK)  »
I'm interested in hearing from anyone connected to  George Livingstone who Died 1896 age 56 at Arthurlie Mountpleasant Rd Rothesay.
George ran a  Saddler and Harness maker business. His son Richard Livingstone may have carried on the business after his father's death.

I think Arthurlie may be the name of the family home.  Would anyone know if it is still standing.

Renfrewshire / LIVINGSTONE families Neilston Barrhead
« on: Sunday 10 May 09 06:56 BST (UK)  »
Hi All, 
I'm new to the list and interested in hearing from anyone with a connection to the LIVINGSTONE families of Neilston Barrhead and laterly of Paisley. Some are on the local census 1851, 1881 & 1891. One Richard  B1842 - D1895 ran a Plumbing and Gas fitting business in Cross Arthurlie, Barrhead. His wife Margaret THOM inhereted the business and sold it soon after to Lochrie & Neilston.

Any history on the business or archival photographs of the above Family I'd love to learn more about.

I have in my possession a list of 37 entries, debts due to Richard's business at the time of his death. i.e. Surnames, businesses, societies, churches etc. Although not of great interest to any family historian but if anyone would like to know if their ancestors had plumbing done in that time period...I'll check the list for them.
