In 1871 they are at Garnkirk Workhouse, Cadder.

1891 is a mystery.

many thanks.  I take it that they were pauper inmates

I should have said Garnkirk Work House.

There were 526 people at that address in 1871 but I don't think it was a poorhouse. More likely housing that was tied to Garnkirk Brick Works as most of the people living there worked at the Brick Works.

Should have added that they had their own household not like a poorhouse where it's just one long list.

My great great grandfather died in Garnkirk workhouse. I was interested in the reply from Cookies4 re the 527 people. Is there a list I can access

I'm also interested in the accommodation tied to the Garnkirk Works as it is stated on my gt grandmother's birth certificate and she was born in 1857
