Unsure at this point about Hugh Wilson at this point, I have a cousin in Canada who is looking at this.

Glad that's sorted & I hadn't noticed it was a separate query. It may be KIRK Place mistranscribed on ancestry not KILK Place. I don't have any SP credits to check original.

Also I have been trying to find a place called MinrihireTo be honest Minrihire looks as though it could be a mistranscriptionhave you seen the original document?
Dumfries but could be ayrshire, as on another part of the tree there are two possibles of birth from info I have one is Minrihire and the other Glencairn,
What info is it you have? Is this a tree on ancestry, yours or someone else's? Might need to follow up on their sources. Wendy's leads look good, worth following up.
there is a birth registered for a John Brown Robertson 1871 but in Glasgow the John Brown Robertson registered in Kilmarnock wasn't until 1885Thanks, I have little info about John Brown Robertson my GGF, apart from year of birth 1871, Kilmarnock who married a Grace Hutchison. (b. 1870) I will take another look for Marion to see if there any leads. Also I have been trying to find a place called Minrihire (I think Dumfries but could be ayrshire, as on another part of the tree there are two possibles of birth from info I have one is Minrihire and the other Glencairn, just wondered if one was just a district of the other.
There are 3 Hugh Browns including a 24 year old in Kilmarnock for the 1871 census
Where did you find the information regarding johns reputed father Hugh
There is also a John Robertson born 19 Mar 1871 Kilmarnock Mother Marion Robertson no father named
Is there a RCE attached to the birth certificate it may give an address for Hugh and using that you may be able to find him in the census
