Submitted by: Anne Niehus Posting this again because I'm sure you great people must know something about my grandparents. Their name was Campbell and they stayed at 97 Wolseley Street, Oatlands from 1957 to 1963? My grandfather was Malky (Malcolm) Campbell and my grandmother was Doris (or Dot) Campbell. They have four "weans" Dorothy was the eldest, My mum (Mary) and then there was James and then Janice. Dorothy and Mary went to Wolseley Street School. My grandmother died in March 1963 when Janice was only 3. For one reason or another we never had any photos of my mum and we can't find any info re her past. I know it's a long shot but it's worth a try. Does anyone remember and are there any photos out there???? Please help!!

Submitted by: Jack Nicol RICKY MOORE- I remember Sandshoe Wullie. I was at St. Francis School at the time in the early '40's and nearly killed myself running home when someone shouted 'here comes Sandshoe Wullie. We were on the roof of the school at the time and a few kids were trying to climb the railings they were so scared. By the time I got home to Rutherglen Rd. I couldn't even speak to tell my mammy what I was scared about and why I was home from school so early. Wonder how that imaginery person came about.OKAY- WHO IS RESPONSIBLE???

Submitted by: Isabella Henriques Hi, Rita Waiting on you to write in again I wanted to ask you something,but first pf all your close is the one I know least qbout.I remember my aunt and uncle lived there but my cousin said she was only two when they moved to Houselwoodand she is now 72 it would be a bit before your time her 4 elder brothers were born up that close I think maybe delivered by your grannie who knows. James says somebody called Devine he used to take epeletic fits.I remember a family lived one up windows facing into Hayfield St.Thought there was a man woman and daughter they were always sitting at the window they were very kind to Mrs. Foster who lived 2up the next close dont know if she did a bit of ironing for them remember the Moffats the fairs the coulters and of course poor Tommy.Remember a girl clled Greta,next close low down through from your uncles shop was Peggy Adams think her husband was Polish but changer his name they had a little girl called Maureen Peggy was a Gallagher from! the next close befoe she married Frank they emigrated to America remember when she came back for a visit then there was the Clarks,the Fosters there was 5 of them one boy who played in St.Frances pipe band top floor the Douglases they emigrated too next door was Maggie Thomson and her son Alex they too emigrated.Next close the Kennedys above them 1up the Galleghers and the McKend family she was Agnes Cllins from 51 before she married 2up Mrs Lumsen and her two daughters one of them was Mary forget the other girls she worked in the town I can remember what people looked like better than their names. Do you remember a young man came home from a POW camp they hung a bigrope accross the road from his drain pipe over to Clynes a big banner saying welcome home I cannott remember his name they stayed top floor first close straight accross from Hayfield St.he had an older brother called John and a younger brother called Angus.Only boy in McNeil St. having a full kiltie outfit my si! ster says he wore it to school one day the mother and father had a shop over near the mortuary think it was an antigue shop called "Henrietta" but I could be mixed that may have been the mothers name remember the father always had a hip flask they were not the usual run of the mill families dont think they came from Gorbals originally but then lots of people in the new houses came from Bridgeton or Calton James is in hospital at the moment maybe he will remember more names(Amelia if you read this will you let Bert Mutter Know I havent written to him yet). A friend of mine has just come back from Glasgow she was most impressed with Christmas lights says Oxford St. hasnt got a look in.Better get off now and leave some space for other people.

Submitted by: Angie Williams Hi My name is jack Parker, I attended Buchan st primary. my friends were Jimmy O neill,walter Fitzpatrick, I left gorbals in 1953. Theres a photo somewhere of all of the class with Mr Mccaskill I believe. Does any one remember Peter Menzies, Jean valis, Evelyn Paton? All the best.
Submitted by: Jack Parker re dark close McNeil St, next to Pig and Whistle. I lived in the close next to the pub in Hayfield Street and new several families there but the only ones I can remember ar The Fox,s Brian and Frankie. There was a little vegetable shop next door also a Woodyard McCanns up the street. I got knocked over by the gates which sprang open during a gale around Easter 1948 or 1949 and ended up in the hospital with concussion. We used to get pails of sawdust from the yard and take it round to Moffat St., and exchange it for caramels from McLintocks. We left the area around 1951 and went to Pollok. I had three sisters, one born in Pollok and we went to St Bonaventures. I,m now retired living in Adelaide and have been in Australia since 1966. I remember the area with affection as we were never short of friends and the world certainly seemed a gentler place. People from the Gorbals experienced a lifestyle that I find impossible to describe to others who do not know the area and I think it certanly gave me the sense of being able to do whatever I wanted and it certainly stood me in goodstead here in Australia.

Submitted by: Agnes Burns (AMB) FAO Wee Blether, There was a close at the top of Cumberland St. on the same side as the church. They had gardens if I can recall because I remember when I was a wee lassie I put my hand through the railings to pick a flower and the woman on the ground floor set her alsation on me. Only for a couple walking towards Eglington St saved me from getting bitten, since then I am wary of dogs now,and was there not a close also roun' the corner from the licensed grocers were you could buy a big bag of greasy crisps (well it looked big to us then).Must look the next time I am passing there.

Submitted by: Ian Christina Philbin You never fail to amaze me with you fantasticaly detailed recollections of Gorbals-and in particular McNeil St. You may remember that you knew my Granny Annie Moffat-local unpaid midwife, mother of 11 children,(twins died shortly after birth)and I believe a generally well thought of human being. We stayed up 66 McNeill St in the dark dank close next to the Pig and Whistle. I don't always sleep well and the other night I was trying to remember everyone's name that stayed up the close. Remembered everyone except the family one up left. Can you remember? It was a Mc or MAC something. An old man stayed on his own, a daughter Jennie? worked in the CO-Op bakeries. The Moffat's were first right in the Middle was Tommy Ralston-he suffered from what they called melancholia(I think it may have been severe depression.) i heard he was in the submarines during the war. How many people can you remember in 66 or the other closes next to it?? Rita

Submitted by: K Warren Hello everyone, I lived in Portugal St. until the 60's then moved to the US, does anyone remember the name of the bakery in Norfolk St? It was just across the road from the Ayrshire Dairy and a few stores up from Cochranes. It had the most delicious scones, treacle, butter, soda. We can still remember the taste and the aromas when we'd go in there in an early winter's morning. This is an excellent site and I enjoy reading the comments, but when friends tell me that I wouldn't recognise the Gorbals now, I always feel sad. We Gorbalites, or is it Gorbalonians, were a rare breed.

Submitted by: Paul Kelly Just found this Forum by Default!! I've enjoyed all the anecdotes about Oatlands as I was brought up in Toryglen St. Attended Bonnies from 68-71. Remember school sports in Roseberry Park, Vics bakery, and taking a dangerous hudgie on the Refuse lorries heading up Polmadie Rd to the Incinerator. It was a tough area, but I was happy in Oatlands until I moved away in 1976 to join the Prison Service!
