Wilsons Row - Wishaw Area
« on: Monday 29 October 18 15:01 GMT (UK) »
I have encountered an address on several census records from 1851-1901 indicating the enumerated persons' addresses at "Wilsons Row", Cambusnethan/Wishaw.

Almost a certainty that Wilsons Row was populated exclusively by miners, and has been obliterated.

The old maps I have seen from the period do not indicate the name of roads or paths well, and gazing at these old maps has been fruitless.

Hoping that a local or a historian/antiquarian of the area might know where about Wilsons Row was located.
