Hi Heather,
Try www.monklands.co.uk and then click on your home town and you will get extensive info on the towns and villages that made up the parishes of New and Old Monkland.
Also www.scottishmining.co.uk gives lots of info on the villages of Lanarkshire including those in Monkland.
Regards,
Sorcha

Have a look at .. The Statistical Accounts of Scotland 1791 - 1845. They cover a large range of topics for various parishes in Scotland ... including Old and New Monkland in the County of Lanark.
