Looking for information on Poorhouses in Govan 1897 Alexander Ross died in Govan Poorhouse 1897 Would like to learn more. Can anyone give me an idea how to find out how he died Irene in Hamilton NZ

I highly recommend Des Garrity,his web site is at ... http://www.desgarrity.co.uk/61c.html Alexander probably made a 'Poor Law Application',which is sometimes a wealth of information There is a fee of course,but it's well worth the price.

Thanks to Frank McGonigal for his suggestion, I will certainly have a look at Des Garrity's web site and look into it. I knew I would get some answers. Thanks a lot. Irene in NZ >
