Jeff, have you tried opening the document in your "paint" program and re-saving in greyscale as a jpg file? Sometimes this will improve the reading quality.

If the quality of the scan is poor, contact SP and tell them. They will arrange for it to be re-scanned. As for where he is buried, no-one can really help without knowing where the family lived and died. Burial records are kept by individual local authorities, and they all deal with them in different ways.

Thank you for the scotlandspeople voucher! My ancestor, Hugh McNally is in the Catholic Parish Records. He was buried in Old Dalbeth Cemetery on 16 Oct 1852. He was age 50, (born in Ireland, probably Co. Monaghan.) I saved the index of 20 McNally burials at Old Dalbeth in case anyone is interested. Sue Marcus

Thomas Russell is suspected of dying b/w 1851 and 1861. In 1851 Scotland Census he was living at 15 Renfrew Street, Barony parish in Glasgow with his wife and children. Out of a result of 12, there are 9 possibilities. Can someone tell me what district Renfrew Street was situated in Glasgow? Shirlee Wellington, NZ

Thank you, Jo-Ann, much appreciated. Best wishes, John

Hi Bob While you're at the Mitchell, and if you have a bit to time, they have a little book there that might be worth a look. It's called: Register of Births and Baptisms in Tolcross Relief Church, from March 1833 to 1863 kept by The Rev. William Aulds. I was lucky enough to have a look at this book quite a few years ago and took note of all my ancestors listed. I know there are some Goldie's listed here, including: born 10 March 1835, James Black to Robt ALLAN and Marian GOLDIE, 12th child, 4 dead. Family residing in Shettleston. Father is a Collier. I found this one when researching my Allan family. If you also have family in Tolcross, this would be worth a look.

I have marriage and death certificates for James Goldie (wife Margaret Jackson) who confirm his parents as James Goldie and Agnes Martin. I have searched Scotlands people, family search and Ancestry and cannot find this couple anywhere. I have one possibility that James Goldie is found in the 1851 census age 5yr (correct with countback on the certs) in the Glasgow poor house no parents listed. I went to the Mitchel to check the poor laws, but he was not listed, the archivist told me that the records did not cover that year, seems strange? I will go back and check again and see if they have admission registers for the poor house. many thanks billty On 29 March 2016 at 19:23, Bravaal <billy.bravaal@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > Looking to hear from anyone with connections to the Goldie family >in Tollcross and Shettleston.
