Margaret Spencer (nee Bradley)
USA |
N/A |
I was born in Glasgow, 1951 -
at 291 Lawmoor Street in the Gorbals. Left
Glasgow in 1959 and moved to Corby - due to the
Steelworks there my Da was able to be gainfully
employed. I remember a lot about the Gorbals (not
a whole lot aboot the rest of Glasgow. I married
a Yank and moved to the USA in 1973 when our
first child was 1. I have a lot of memories about
the Gorbals and, thanks to the Internet, I've
been able to find out of print books authored by
Glaswegians, primarily about the Gorbals and
Glasgow. I've just finished reading a wonderful
book, some of you may have read, if not, I
recommend it for those who are just a wee bit
haimsick! It's called "Looking for
Peggy" by Meg Henderson. Full of humor,
sadness and poverty. Many of us can relate to
that, right I'd be happy to hear from anyone
who'd like to "blether". |

Born in 1945 at 165 Allander
St, Possil. Moved in 1947 to Dennistoun,
Craigmore St (think it was no.6)and went to
Bluevale Primary School from 1950 - 53 when we
moved to Ruchazie and I then went to Riddrie
Primary. I then went to Whitehill Senior
Secondary where I won the junior athletic
championship in 1959. My name was unusual (Elda
Mulrine) so perhaps some memories will be jogged.
My brother John also went to Whitehill. Moved to
Cumbernauld in 1966 and then emigrated to
Australia in 1971. My family still live in
Cumbernauld and I have visited many times over
the years, the last time being in Aug/Sept this
year. Now married to an Aussie whose
gg/grandparents came from Glasgow. |
