Scotland Genealogy:Lanarkshire Census & County Records

One of the south-western counties of Scotland, and the most important county of the country. It ranks only tenth among Scottish counties as to area, but is by far the most populous - containing, indeed, as many inhabitants as the three next in order all taken together, and very nearly a quarter of the whole population of Scotland - and the most valuable, as the valuation, exclusive of burghs, is greater than that of the next two in order taken both together. It is bounded N by Stirlingshire and a detached portion of Dumbartonshire, NE by Stirlingshire, Linlithgowshire, and Edinburghshire, E by Peebleshire, SE and S by Dumfriesshire, SW by Dumfriesshire and Ayrshire and W by Ayrshire, Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire." [Bartholemew's Gazetteer of Scotland, 1883]
