Hullo Agnes

A visit to the Mitchel Library, 201 North Street, Glasgow or a letter to them asking for information from the Poor Law Register about Margaret Steel McCallum might be very much worth your while.

I got an amazing amount of information from the Paisley one, where a Great Granduncle died.

By the way, I noticed an entry in the IGI and wondered if there might be a connection, another generation perhaps:

MARY STEEL MCCALLUM - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Birth: 31 JAN 1860 Hutchesontown, Glasgow, Lanark, Scotland
Father: Donald McCallum Mother Margaret Shaw

Succesful Searching!
