Addresses in Govan and Clydebank.....

[fortunata]

Is anyone able to tell me anything about any of these places. I expect they are long gone, redevelopment being what it is, but if anyone has information i would be very pleased to hear from you.
1) Queen Street, Govan - appears on the birth certificate of my gtgt grandmother as her place of birth.

2) Victoria Road, Clydebank - given as the residence of my gtgt grandfather at the time of his marriage to my gtgtgrandmother(of course!)

3) Clydebank Terrace, Clydebank - given as the residence of my gtgt grandmother at the time of her marriage etc.
I think they married at St James Parish Church at (cant read that!) in Clydebank. I have taken this information from their original marriage certificate, which was given to me many years ago by my great aunt(one of their daughters.)
Thank you

Hi Fortunata,

Queen St, Govan became a southern part of Neptune St.
If you go to - http://www.nls.uk/digitallibrary/map/to ... plans.html

select Glasgow [1892-4]
click on middle box on left,
click on VI.9.18 - Queen St is up at the top right corner, and continues on,
VI.9.13 at the bottom right corner, and to see the northern part,
VI.9.14 - at middle of the left hand side.
It stops at Windsor St - nowadays Vicarfield St.
Victoria St is the northern part of Neptune St.

The Glasgow Story mentions Queen St, Govan

Not too sure of a Victoria Road, but there was a Victoria Street in Clydebank.
From Kilbowie Rd; Livingstone St used to run east from it,
and Victoria St ran north/south across Livingstone St - about 200yds from Kilbowie Rd.
(demolished late 1970s - new Clydebank Shopping Centre built on the land)
