Govan

A parish partly in the county of Lanark and partly in the county of Renfrew. It was a quoad omnia parish (a parish for civil and religious purposes). In 1892 the Boundary Commissioners altered the boundaries of the civil parish, transferring parts of the parish to the parishes of Eastwood and Renfrew.
