Thanks

I think the same year for David too, but is 1960 not yet on Scotland's people?
or more difficult to obtain, or something?

Julie

With a 1960 death you need to order the certificate which costs £10.

Thanks Sancti

That is him.
Many thanks, he passed away much earlier than I thought.
Lived then in Carmyle.

Also I found that from Scotland's people that: A 1960 death should be on [Scotland's People] late  December 2010/early January 2011.

Also I now know the Catholic paper was printed in North Frederick st, though don't yet know the name of it,  I found these two miniature mentions:

" Scottish Catholic Company, Limited, 32, North Frederick Street,. Glasgow. Inside it calls itself The Catholic Parish Magazine, for other parishes can, if they choose, make it their ... The news of the world, as far as it affects Catholic ... " [this excerpt only online]

from:
•  The Irish Monthly
Vol. 37, No. 435 (Sep., 1909), pp. 525-532
(review consists of 8 pages)
•  Published by: Irish Jesuit Province
•  Stable URL: http://www.jstor.org/stable/20502678

and GREAT photos including of Frederick st on this site:

"...North Frederick St, west side north of George Sq. The building next to the George seems to have been the Glasgow office of the Irish Weekly and Ulster Examiner, a Belfast newspaper which closed in 1982.  September 1973 ..."

Also:
George Square and North Frederick St.  September 1973

So I am getting closer - though not yet sure if the paper was perhaps "the Catholic Parish Magazine" or "the Glasgow office of the Irish Weekly and Ulster Examiner" or office/printer for both etc.

If it was North Frederick Street - you also have the publishers of "The Glasgow Observer" at 52 North Frederick Street. This of course became The Glasgow Catholic Observer and then The Scottish Catholic Observer.

Nothing listed for 32 North Frederick Street in the 1927 or the 1943 directories. (although this could simply mean it was a small company who didn't buy space in the directories)

What was the actual date of his death in 1957?

Have you checked for obits?

[VDLstories]

Thanks again

no haven't thought of that:

8 Aug 1957

Do you know where/how to check for those?
 

[sancti]

I had a quick look at the Glasgow Herald archives but can't see him mentioned

[VDLstories]

Thanks very much for checking

no worries

I can go into Mitchell Library with my growing folder and look up obits too in 2 weeks once in Glasgow for a few days, in other papers etc, perhaps they will have info or leads about him and  about Frederick st printers too.
