Was reading about Taylor Street here and was wondering if any one had recollections of Margaret-Ann Young who gave birth to my father Harry Young at 138 Taylor Street, Townhead in 1913. I believe Harry's father was a James Mathieson who worked as a compositor and who also lived on Taylor Street. We've just been trying to trace my father's roots and Young's of Townhead. Margaret had a sister, Mary, and the whole family was orginally from Montrose. We discovered the family grave in Riddrie Cemetery when my father died in 1996.
Thanks and best wishes

Hi My grandmother Agnes McKinlay was born and lived in Taylor street around 1920. I will ask her about your family. She lived in number 105. I am looking for photos of the tenement buildings
