Welcome to Rootschat.

Unfortunately although the lair records previously held by Glasgow Council Bereavement services have been digitised they are not available online. (Records since 1995 are still held by the Bereavement Services)

Glasgow City Archives at the Mitchell Library currently hold these records but they are not generally available for public search. Prior to the current lockdown all enquiries were to be directed by email to the archive staff at the Mitchell but currently all library functions are suspended and I suspect that a considerable backlog will have built up.  (There is also a charge for this service depending upon how much staff time is taken up in the search but it is still considerably less than the £60 that Glasgow Council Bereavement Services were reputed to charge for a search)
