Thank you for looking
Well..
it does look like him, but my ELLEN (the next child down on the census).. her Father is named on her marriage cert as Peter McLean, but I suppose they could have different fathers?

Hello Meryl, there are several options:

McLean may be spelt differently i.e. Maclean etc etc

They may not be born in Liverpool but perhaps raised there (like some of my relatives - that delayed me a bit)

Where have you searched the bmd?

(edit: sorry you said)

Please can anyone advise me? I am very stuck!
I am researching, in Cheshire and Lancashire and have arrived at Scottish Ancestors
I am in possession of an 1861 Barony, Glasgow census
It has Mary McLean as Head married age 40 born Dumfries no mention of a husband (who I am hoping is Peter) though… however, she has 4 children living with her 3 sons and 1 daughter.
I am hoping that the daughter is my family line..
William son age 14
ELLEN daughter age 12
Alexander son age 9
Peter son age 7
On the census, all four children are listed as born in LIVERPOOL
I have searched Birth Records on Free B.M.D but can’t find any record of them
I have searched the Lancashire B.M.D also but can not find any record of them
If the records have not been transcribed yet, what can I do? Go direct to the registrar or do you think maybe they weren’t really born in Liverpool after all? Mmm…!
Any suggestions would be appreciated Ta
