No sign of him in census or death indexes at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk or in the indexes to the England and Wales census or the Ireland census in 1901 or 1911. So it looks as if he must have emigrated after the death of his father in 1894.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Black has this as a rare Scottish surname found Annan 1801, also Blaylock!  There's a Blayloch Drive in Glasgow G45. There are a load of Blaylock posts on Rootschat.  ;D

Skoosh.

In the post office directory 1892, after Andrew's name is a P Blelloch of grey and blelloch, I am unable to find a birth for him as well. Mary
