    Hugh Stevenson was a boarder at 251 Main St Hutchesontown, Gorbals in 1861. he was a widow, OCC Hostler (Looks after horses) Omnibus, so I guess he looked after the horses which pulled the buses. He was 60 and was born in Neilston, but that's not conclusive. No sign of a likely William.Source Johan.



    Re Hugh's death. He died at Greenhill in 1864, son Allan registered the death. In 1861 Allan Stewart, married to Jean Stevenson (Hugh's daughter) was at Greenhill, so I guess she had her father stay with her before his death.Source Johan.

    Notes:

    Barrhouse is owned by Elderslie Estates, landlords of about a third of Renfrewshire for several centuries. We have made a preliminary foray into their archives and found records dated 1797 of an Allan Carswell renting Craig of Neilston and Barrhouse in the Neilstonside Estate, for £115 pa from 1786 to 1805. Prior to that in 1769 it is noted that John Carswell of Neilstonside rented Barrhouse for £9:8:4 (From letter by Bruce Henry dig director at Barrhouse.)
