The Scotland's People index now lists all births (and deaths) until very recently. You can't view a 1948 birth certificate online but you can get access to the information by one of the more traditional methods:
- order a copy of the certificate from the GROS (direct or via SP)
or
- hire a researcher to transcribe the details of the certificate you want
