If you go to www.familysearch.org you will find a whole raft of Blue/Blew names the above are just some of them...however the actual records for the Greenock Old Parish show a John Blue 16 Feb 1755 parents John Blue and Margaret McCulkan...also Registers dated 1698-1756. You will need the extension and plenty of paste for the Walls...!!!
