Hello KatrinaB,

I think your Robert Mcghee, born 1875. in Cambusnethan, Lanark, died as a baby.

Here is the family 1881. Census.

James McGhie, Head, Coalminer, M. age 43 years, M. born Tollcross, Lanark,
Isabella, McGhie, Wife, M. age 40 years, F. born Ardrie, Lanark,
Sarah McGhie, Daur, U. age 16 years F. born Wishaw, Lanark,
David McGhie, Son, age 13 years, M. born Wishaw, Lanark,
James McGhie, Son, age 11 years, M. born Haywood, Lanark,
Isabella McGhie, Daur, Age 8 years, F. born Wishaw, Lanark,
Jane McGhie, Daur, age 4 years, F. born Dalserf, Lanark,
Margaret McGhie, Daur, age 1 Year, born Dalserf, Lanark.

There is a death for a Robert McGhee, age 0 years 1875. Cambusnethan, Lanark.

Thank you Jonn.  Oh dear, I hope I haven't got two documents mismatched.  If anyone has a spare moment to verify, this is the 1901 census which i'm 100% sure is my Robert McGhee and then I traced the birth record (already attached to this thread so can't re-attach) to be the same Robert, which led me to this line of inquiry on this post.
