Does anyone know of a family by the name of Sibbald and came from Glasgow. As I am looking for a lady called Margret Sibbald, she would have ben born between 1945/1960. She stayed at 125 Dunira street, Glasgow in 1972 and she was a dyer at that time. Dunira st was off Tollcross in Parkhead area.

If anyone knows of any info please can you contact me no matter how small the info you may have :-)

She only be 12 in 1972 if born 1960' so would still be at school

Have you looked on Scotland's People for her birth ?

Hi Shirley

Yes I have been on Scotlands People but there is a few with the same name and the census isn't available for me to check on the address :-)

What about checking the electoral roll for that address if she was 21 plus she should be on it

Or was her stay short term ? If she gave birth at that address was it some sort of home?

Shirley I have tried searching for who stayed at that address in 1972 but the census isn't available yet sadly. I am not sure if it was a short stay or not.

No not the census but the electoral rolls . These are held at the main library for the area I think

Someone with scottish knowledge would be able to tell you
