If so,

then the 1905 marriage address of [Sth] York street is only a few metres away, one parallel street to the west from [Sth] Wellington street address of 1891.

hi  Sancti

Many thanks for this great link to changed street names - fantastic site.

Meanwhile I have taken a look and wondering if the part of London Rd that was Canning street is the beginning part near St Andrews Square?

which is where this family was living between 1875 and 1885
and maybe Sth Wellington st is also close [1889]
which brings us to 1891 and Canning st.

google map of London Rd near St Andrews sq is:

hi

I am coming to Scotland in 2 weeks and want to visit as best as possible where ancestors lived as found on various records - finding most on google maps  - but I can't find 3 Canning St, Calton, Bridgeton, Glasgow where my GOUGH family were living in 1891.

Can anyone advise where that was? if possible via a google map link !?

Also I am trying to understand if they were going 'up' or 'down' in the world of housing in each census, where they lived. How was their lives...

 I understand from previous rootschat feedback that Bridgegate st was in the midst of a slum area.

1851census  MC GOUGH -  71 Bridgegate st, Glasgow
1856 death Ann [mother aged 30] MC GOUGH -  81 Bridgegate st, Glasgow
** 1861 census MC GOUGH - can't find them [Francis father b1818, and John Mc Geough/McGough   son b.1845 - any advice welcomed to find them.]
1871 census MC GOUGH- 13 Kirk St [?], Glasgow, Calton
1875 birth MC GOUGH - 38 St Andrews Sq, Blackfriars
1881 census - MC GOUGH - 38 St Andrews Sq, Blackfriars
1885 birth  MC GOUGH - 42 St Andrews Sq, Blackfriars
1889 birth MC GOUGH - 40? South Wellington St, Glasgow
1891 census GOUGH - 3 Canning st Calton, Bridgeton, Glasgow
1901 census GOUGH - 19 Sandyfaulds st, Govan
1901 census COPE - 562 Calder st, Govan, Glasgow
1905 marriage GOUGH - home address - 438 South York St, Glasgow
1905 marriage  GOUGH - church was Kinning Park 33 Queen sq, Glasgow
1908 birth GOUGH 29 Govanhill Street Glasgow
1920 death MC GOUGH - 494 Crown st Glasgow
1929 marriage GOUGH - west Gourlay st, Springlawn [?]

if anyone can advise on that it would be appreciated also
thanks
Julie

Many thanks   Elwyn, Kingskerswell and Aghadowey for your really valued advice

This is all very helpful.

 I have been busy pasting the McKenzies in Fermanagh tables from the 1901 census into a doc. -  that does give a really good indication of locations of McKenzies so at least I am not driving blind into Fermanagh shortly - although 1901 is  [maybe] 4 generations after Charles was convicted in Nottingham in 1815. Even so, I can get a sense of the place and perhaps  even find a McKenzie today. Also, perhaps some church ministers in these locations might know more.

Meanwhile, I am yet to get a   mini subscription trial of ancestry.com for 14 days when I can then hopefully download the [pre Australian] UK trial records of the McKenzies and the other 10! transported ancestors.

thanks again [I am now pasting the 1911 census to compare McKenzies from then to 1901.]
