Fifer,
Thank you for letting me know.  I can wait patiently.  I understand that Glasgow is a rather lsrge area and there are probably tons of Cochranes and Parkers living there.

Hi
Thank you for your look-up offer.  I know it takes a lot of time, as I do a little myself but I find it very rewarding.  have had a problem for some time now as my ancestor appears to have been born in Fifeshire about 1729 according to his obituary in the local paper.  His name was John Pitblade or Pitbladdy or Pladdy (Pronunciation has produced many variations and he was a gardener at Millom Castle - his first child in Cumberland was down as Andrew Peart Bloddy!)  This child was baptised 27 December 1861 in Millom, to John and Jane, but Jane was also known as Jenny Pladdy - again quoted from her obituary, though her age wasn't given.  The nearest to age in the IGI baptisms for a John Pitblade is 1725 and I know that some are not on the IGI and that the ages do not always tally.  If you have time could you check any BT's for this.   Thank you
Jo3

Thank you

Fifer, When you can, I would like to request a lookup in the Fife Old Parish Records, for the birth of a William Chalmers in May 1836.  He was married in Forgan Parish, but he was entered as a Paper Mill Worker, Markinch.  His mother listed as Euphemia Chalmers, Father Thomas Watt.
If you can find any info on his birth, it would be very much appreciated.  With thanks meg
