Ultimately trading to trace any relatives of my mother Francis McCaskill Whyte who married Bill Buddie lived in Govan area.

February 15, 2020 - 23:59I was born in 40 Aboyne Streetr (Teucharhll) 1942 then when approx 10 we moved to 7 SKENE RD,(lower right flat) but did, for many years, longed to immigrate to AMERICA which I finally did at AGE 18, on my own, in APRIL 20 1960. I have wonderful memories of attending Ibrox elementary and then on to Lambill Street school which I believe is now a retirement facility. Prior to immigrating in 1960 I worked at BRITISH POLAR ENGINES on Helen Street in the Typing Pool. Stayed in NY for 2 yrs but then moved to Caifornia in '63. Married with 1 adult son who lives in Hawaii. I now reside in SUNCITY ROSEVILLE, a retirement community.
I doubt any one will remember me but the wonderful Business skills I learned at Lambhill St from Mr. Lithgow (shorthand/typing) enabled me to have some wonderful jobs over my business career: Anaconda Wire & Cable, Hastings-on-the-Hudson, NY, Mutual Benefit Insurance in Los Angeles, and spending 30 yrs at IBM CORP in San JOSE, CA, retiring in 1996 & then moving to Roseville, California. Now at 78 I tend to look back at my early life in Scotland with great fondness. And my long life in AMERICA has also been very too but I do credit my success to the wonderful skills I learned at LAMBHILL STREET.

Sheena NivenAugust 04, 2019 - 23:38I noticed pictures of old Whiteinch and there was one taken in a back of 1170 Dumbarton Road. The closes there were known as "The gangway because each landing had a row of flats and the picture I seen next the stairway showed a woman's dress hanging over the railings and a tartan shirt. Was back in the fifties and those two items were my mother and father's items. Felt stunned seeing that and recalled them being hung up to dry.As a boy up to the age of 11 when we moved before the three gangway closes were demolished I loved Whiteinch to bits. Was in the 234rg Glasgow Life Boys at nearby Gordon park church but as moved when I finished I at 12 had to join a BB company nearer yy new home. In July 2018 walking along near Bellahouston park for an event a man stopped me and asked if my name was Bobby Howie and had I went to Whiteinch Primary!
I loved the trams (my mother had been a conductress during the war) and several years ago using a brilliant railway simulator programme I built the whole of the old Glasgow tramway and actually walked every former route at nearly 140 miles. I was also proud of my uncle Tom as he was a tram driver back then. Thought it a great place to live and a compact population and for all that there were slums in parts as I grew I had to watch my Whiteinch gradually diminish. My longest job was in the Education Dept and one of the longest "school boards" in the city! Also served as a JP in the District Court. Lived now in Knightswood for decades but every time I pass along Dumbarton Rd reminds e of a great place to live.
