Helen,  You sound as if you are something of an expert and I wonder if you can possibly help!  I'm trying to trace the birth of my 2xgreat grandfather, George McIntosh, who is given as born in Arderseir on the 1851 and 1861 census returns, at around 1818.  Witnesses to the birth of his children in Glasgow include a James McIntosh and a William McIntosh, who I take to be his brothers.  The only McIntosh family I have found in the Arderseir/Petty area at around 1815 including a James, William and George are the children of James McIntosh and Isobel Tolmie.  Their James was born in Petty in 1806 and William in Arderseir in 1812, but I can't find a birth entry for George on Scotlands People, though someone has submitted an entry on IGI of 6th August 1819.  Is there any possibility of being able to check the records I wonder?  Any advice or help would be gratefully received!

Best wishes,  John
