Comment | Yeah, so a wee correction to my original. Robert Graham and Mary Hill didn't sell off the whole estate to Glasgow like I said. They first sold a section of the estate to make way for a small village. Part of the sale included a clause stating the Village be named Maryhill.
It would have been much later before Maryhill became part of Glasgow. I can't find anything to indicate when the remainder of the Dawsholm estate changed hands. From what I can tell, the Grahams/Hills had sold off Dawsholm by the late 1700s around the time that the canal and railway were getting built. |
