Hi Lorraine, I think the answer to who James McCall's father may be  could be in his middle name
JAMES BLUE GALLOWAY
 Birth:  08 JUN 1865   Cadder, Lanark, Scotland

  Mother:  ANN GALLOWAY 
I think that looking for a James Blue from that area and time may reveal the father of James  ie James Blue  Cheers Robbie

Hi Robbie,

Thanks for your reply.  Yes, I do have James' full names and have been trying to find out about the mysterious "Blue".  The closest I have found is a Duncan Blue who was also an agricultural worker in the same area as Ann Galloway lived.  I don't live in Scotland so it's difficult for me to get any further info. James birth cert. gives no father, and his marriage cert. list George McCall as his father.

I would be grateful if you could put any McCall descendants that you know of in touch with me, as someone researching this family may have more knowledge..

Regards
Lorraine
