R. Jolly M. D. [Doctor of Medicine] Proprietor
012.06 A Colliery village having a Free Church & Manse and a Colliery School in Napier's Square. The whole village is of recent date, being chiefly erected by the Lessees of the Colliery of Stevenston hence, the name "New Stevenston". Whatever the origin of this name maybe it will be seen that all authorities disagree with the Proprietor of Stevenston Estate, Dr. Jolly.
SCHOOL [New Stevenston] School Same as above 012.06 There is upon the same authorities a "school" here supported like other Colliery schools by stoppages made from the Collier's wages
