Hi Teresa,
None for Dumbartonshire....
Found two born around the correct time...father John ....mother Barbara....but one Midlothian and the other Lanarkshire...

Do you have any siblings names?

Hi Vera, checking on one of my relatives that died in WW1. It says he was born in Jamestown on some records but the one I'm looking for was born in Hutchestown in Glasgow and was living in Cambuslang with family in 1901 (siblings George William Annie and Catherine). Trying to check whether there was another John with same named parents.
