PRINTED BY ALEXANDER GARDNER, PAISLEY. THr LflJRARY PREFACE. Few words are required to introduce this little work to the public of Glasgow. Suffice it to say that on several occasions during the past four years I was invited and did deliver lectures on "Old Gorbals"" to a number of public bodies, among others being the Gorbals Ward Committee, the Old Glasgow Club, and Educational Guilds in connection with the Kinningpark Co-operative Society. The princi- pal matter contained in these lectures I have arranged, edited, and now issue in book form. While engaged collecting materials for the lectures, I discovered that a number of errors had crept into previous publications relating to Old Gorbals. For example, some writers seemed to have entertained the idea that there was only one George Elphinston rented or possessed the lands of Gorbals, whereas there were three of the name, all in direct succession. M'Ure and other historians, failing to distinguish the difference between a Barony and a Burgh of Barony, state that Gorbals was erected into a Burgh of Barony in 1595.

  • Grave Matters 11
    Grave Matters Number 11 Spring 2020 Little did I think when I chose the title Grave Matters for this newsletter how appropriate it would turn out to be as Covid 19 creeps up on us. So far as I know the indexers are well. Some are working from home and/or caring for young children and do not have much time to spare at the moment for other matters; some are busy supporting the less able members of their community and a few are finding themselves with time on their hands and welcome extra indexing. The indexers continue to make progress and the number of records indexed in the last three months is as follows – January 2020 567 February 2020 300 March 2020 456 This brings our database of persons buried or commemorated in the Necropolis to 32006 entries at the end of March 2020. The Necropolis’s First Murder Victim On the 16th June 1853 the entry for the burial of Alexander Boyd a forty-two year old ship’s carpenter gave his cause of death simply as ‘murder’. The case, normally referred to as ‘The New Vennel Murder’, was widely covered in the newspapers of the day. Alexander Boyd had recently returned to Scotland following the death of his mother but leaving his wife and family behind in Valparaiso. He found lodgings with another ship’s carpenter in Finnieston. On Saturday 11th June he met an old friend James Law and the two men went on a pub crawl. That night they were picked up by two women named Mary Hamilton and Ann Young and enticed by them to a house in Croiley’s Land, New Vennel.
