Certainly food for thought in there.
I don't think Sarah or her family could be classed as paupers ..more yer basic middle class (grandad, her son, worked for the Min of Pensions)

A chap from the Glasgow FHS got the records for me some time ago from Alistair Tough at the Health Board Archives. A bit of digging and I found his address. I hope he's still on deck and can help you (the capital letters are right)

A.Tough@archives.gla.ac.uk
good luck, Sylvia
Hi Sylvia,

I have been in touch with A.Tough before and very helpful he/she was too.
I'll certainly give it a go.

Thanks a lot,
