Hello Cathy,

What a shame you did not see Nina's post before I went to The Mitchell.

Hi Annette,

Poorhouse records at the Mitchell

Post by Alison Plenderleith » Thu Oct 27, 2005 1:24 pm

Hello All,

I have another big favour to ask one of you kind people who visit the Mitchell.

I'm looking for an application for Matthew Cunningham who died in the Glasgow City Poorhouse on 29th October 1891. His death cert. said Pauper, fomerly slaughter house labourer. Usual residence 20 East Rose Street. The informant was his widow. His parents were John Cunningham and Ann ms Riddell

Many thanks in anticipation [-o<

Regards,

Alison
