I'm trying to find records of Margaret Hepburn 1909-????. Aberdeenshire. She had an illegitimate son James Ian Hepburn 1933. The father is reputed to be George or James Park of New Pitsligo. I am researching this for a friend who thinks we might be related through the Parks of New Pitsligo. Any help is gratefully received. Thank you

Welcome to Rootschat :D
There is a birth registration for a James Ian Hepburn 1933, Ref 223/33, Reg. Dist. Monquhitter.
It appears to be the only one in the relevant time frame as James Ian.
Is it likely that Margaret married?
There was just one birth record for plain Margaret between 1907 and 1911. This Margaret's birth record shows that she was born on 5th June 1909 at 37 Hutcheon? St., Aberdeen, parents William and Margaret nee Caldwell.
The family were at this address in the 1911 census.

Of the Park names you mention there were three likely births but only one survived.
JAMES MCGREGOR PARK 1910 Died age 3 New Pitsligo
GEORGE ALLAN PARK 1914 Died age 0 New Pitsligo
JAMES PARK 1902 New Pitsligo
The above James is on the 1911 census with his parents James & Ann and three siblings.
