The rise and fall of Lanarkshire’s little Lithuania Jason Henderson recalls the revolutionary streak among the thousands of Lithuanians who made Bellshill their home in the early 20th century.

Good article by Jason Henderson in @heckle.scot on the Lanarkshire Lithuanians. These coal miners and their families fled Tsarist oppression only to face bigotry from Scottish coal owners and trade union leaders alike in the late 19th and early 20th century.
