OS Grid Ref: - NS 559665
The congregation of Partick South came together in 1978 as a tri-union of Newton Place, Partick Anderson and Hamilton Crescent churches using the then existing building of Newton Place located on the main thoroughfare of Dumbarton Road. A modern multi- purpose Sanctuary was opened in 1988 on the site of the previous building.
A new suite of halls was built onto the church and was opened in 2002.

George Turner, Gordon Turner and John Turner are the final names on the list.
Two of them are on the Glasgow Roll of Honour:
TURNER George M Gunner Australian Imperial Force 1 Thornwood Terrace Partick
TURNER John Lieutenant Gordon Highlanders 1 Thornwood Terrace Partick
and I think that the three are brothers.
TURNER, GEORGE MILLER
Gunner 4361 Australian Field Artillery 3rd A.F.A. Bde.
Date of Death:29/03/1918 Age:34
Son of William and Madge Turner. Native of Hawaiian Islands.
TURNER, GORDON
Private 200868 Cameronians (Scottish Rifles) 5th Bn.
Date of Death:05/11/1916
SNWM - Place of birth Hawaiian Islands.
TURNER, JOHN
Second Lieutenant Gordon Highlanders 7th Bn.
Date of Death:29/11/1916 Age:32
Son of Mr. W. and Mrs. M. Turner, of Ben Ericht, Blairgowrie, Perthshire. Native of Glasgow.
George's entry on the AIF Project has some interesting details and his attestation papers have an amendment showing his father Mr W M Turner of 1 Thornwood Terrace, Partick, Glasgow as his next of kin. https://www.aif.adfa.edu.au/showPerson?pid=306180
