Media: DATA CD - 1 CD
Publisher: Archive CD Books GB

This product is sold as a CD SECOND or SPARE.

"CD seconds" or "spares" are perfectly good data wise, but have been put aside due to:

• faulty label printing, e.g. off colour or misaligned. A few have been manually labelled or corrected
• over-produced initially, so offered as "spares" to clear

They are all offered at 60% to 90% discount (from the normal price). They will be supplied in clear CD sleeves, rather than the normal CD cases. It is the last available, i.e. it won't be available, even at full price, when sold out.

These two volumes on one CD cover the history of Glasgow in 370 until 1816. It has chapters on the rise and progress of the city including chapters on the magistrates and law, religions influence and structure, public buildings, charities, hospitals, societies, schools, regiments, riots, fires, construction and destruction, as well as tales of the city.

Most importantly it lists by name Hammermen, Tailors, Cordiners, Maltmen, Weavers, Baxters, Skinners, Wrights, Coopers, Fleshers, Masons, Gardeners, Barbers Dyers and Bonnetmakers.

MORE INFORMATION:

Unusually it has lots of handwritten notes on cover pages, naming people such as the chief importers of tobacco, members of the literary society and more, which were added in 1850.

It even lists the price of bread! A great way to learn more about your ancestors and the life they lived. Essential reading for those with Glasgow ancestors.
