Additional Notes
Supervisor comments
The window was intended for the Victorial United Free Church (located at Pollokshaws Rd and Victoria Rd), however this church burnt down in 1929. The window illustrates the Victoria United Free Church and the names listed are related to this congregation. In 1931, the window was installed in the Crosshill Victoria Church (34 Dixon Ave). It is unclear if this church is related to the Crosshill United Free Church on Dixon Avenue.

In 1975, the window was then relocated from the Crosshill Victoria Church on Dixon Ave to the Crosshill Queens Park Church (40 Queens Drive). In 2000-2004, upon the redevelopment of Crosshill Queens Park Church into private flats, the windows were again moved to Queen's Park Parish Church (170 Queens Drive).
