Different set of eyes!
« on: Monday 23 May 11 16:51 BST (UK) »
Hi peeps i woud realy appreciate another pair of eyes, having a gander at this for me. I am absolutely stumped! finding it a bit more difficult with my paternal grandfathers side as i had assumes all my family were Scottish right back & i was suprized to establish the other night that my Ggp were born in Englnd  :o albieit i'd say they were diaspora. ;D
Anyway whats stumping me the most is that the 1911 census shows my ggp's and my gf and it states that my gf was born in Lugar, Ayr which is which is verified on my Dads bc but there is no record of any William McCall born in the year he was born. In case i got that wrong i widened the search 1900-1910 still no joy. Found his parents marriage cert in Lugar in 1905 but i soo need proof of his birth cert.

Am i doing something wrong? any help greatly appreciated.

 thanks in advance

I can't find any "William McCall" born anywhere in Scotland from 1837 to 2000.  Is it possible there is some kind of error on the census form?
