Seeking any person who's family in the 60s may have known a young Irish man called Denis McGarvey from Gweedore, Donegal who worked in castlemilk for a few months. Possibly someone came to find him when he lived in North London some many years later

Hi. I grew up in castlemilk till i was 11. I lived with my brothers & sister at 46 tormusk rd. Left in 1974 heartbroken coz i would miss playing with my pals. All the weans played (or fought) together on the streets, it was great fun. Still missing it. 

Hi......further to my previous posts concerning the ‘Black’ family, I believe they 

(Lewis, Sarah & Mary Black) May have had a connection with Howwood Road in Glasgow for some time pre 1958......back to the 1930’s. 

In or around 1958, I think the family moved to Castlemilk Drive (225), in Castlemilk, Glasgow.

Any help and assistance you may offer in tracing anyone from this family will be greatly appreciated!!!!

THANK YOU

Can anyone shine any light at all on the family named ‘Black’ who lived in Castlemilk around the very early 1960’s. 

if not, does anyone know of any parish registers covering that area and time that I can access?

Many thanks

Looking for any member of the ‘Black’ family, in particular Lewis/Louis......who may have had a sister called Anne. I believe they lived on, or near, Birdigale rd. in the Castlemilk area of the city in the very early 1960’s, and possibly earlier & later.

Any information at all would be very greatly appreciated!

Thank you
