| (1) The following section was first launched on 12.10.21 as a section of a Temporary page. It was moved here after review led to acceptance that there was little chance of our making a significant improvement to it in the near future and that it was 'good enough' to be promoted into the main database. (2) References below to 'Dean of Guild' are to the Deans of the Merchants House of Glasgow. For many years, those Deans were 'the second citizen' of the city, second only to the Provost (the Scots equivalent of Mayor). |
