FIRST
GLASGOW DIRECTORY 1787
LISTS
THE INFORMATION PLACED ON THESE WEBPAGES IS TO BE USED FOR INDIVIDUAL
GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH AND BY NO MEANS MEANT TO BE COPIED AND USED FOR DISTRIBUTION FOR FINANCIAL GAIN.
The
Editor of this Directory intended it at first only as an Alphabetical List of
the Subscribers of the Tontine Coffee-room, but was prevailed upon to make it of
more general use, by collecting the names of as many of the Merchants,
Manufacturers, &c. &c. as the time would possibly allow, with a List of
such of the Firms in Glasgow as conveniently could be got.
PLEASE
NOTE!!
The
information provided below is typed just as it appears to be in the book. I have
had email from visitors who were wondering if I realized the small f's should be
small s's. Please be aware that some of the small s's looked like small f's. I
for one was not yet aware that in the 18th and early 19th centuries the small
s's looked alot like the small f's. It has been pointed out to me that the
crossbar does not go completely through the letter. The print in this old book
was very tiny to start with so I didn't even notice that about the crossbar.
Another person let me know that in some of her old documents where there are
double small s's that it is just the first small s that looks like the small f.
Keep that in mind when looking at old documents. I'm going to leave this
Directory just as it is. It isn't that hard to follow once one knows what I just
said here.
