By far the best guide to Glasgow streets, past and present, - including name changes, - is the 2 part "A Guide to Glasgow Addresses" by Susan Miller, published by the Glasgow & West of Scotland FHS.

"Part I : 1700 - 1825: Merchant City",
"Part II: 1826 - 1950 : Industrial City".

Hi David,

I wonder if "A Guide to Glasgow Addresses" by Susan Miller was the more comprehensive publication the author of the Rename Street Index was referring to?

Hi Anne

Almost certainly, I'd have thought.
