Hi Robert

Thank you for finding out that for me.
Any idea where the St.George area was?

It could be one of two areas .... there is/was a St Georges Church in Buchanan Street at the end of George Street in the modern city centre.

There is also St Georges Cross area just north of the current city centre ....

I'm not 100% sure but I believe that it would have been the first area.

Have a look at http://www.old-maps.co.uk/ the 1865 map for Glasgow shows the church
