Col John Clark Forrest
Another bite sized chunk of Blantyre History
| One of the Grand Masters of this Lodge was called. Col John Clark Forrest.
The three streets we have talked about were named after him, John Street, Clark Street, and Forrest Street. His home or Property was called Auchinraith as in Auchinraith Road which we again have referred to. The street where I lived, called Logan Street, was named after his wife Janet Logan. He must have had a great influence in the village matters to have all these streets named after him and his property. He was also the provost of Hamilton 1875-81. |
