Thank you Thelma,
This could be him apart from the place of birth.
I am pretty sure my John was born in Govan so I will have to check my records and get back to you,

I wonder if someone with Ancestry could look up John Wilkie b c 1878 in Scotland on the 1911 census.
On his marriage certificate in 1902 his occupation was footballer .I can't find him in Scotland in 1911.
I have googled him and found he played for Partick Thistle and then at some point went to Blackburn, so he may be in england in 1911.
Hopefully he will be with his wife Elizabeth .I cannot find a death for her in Scotland so she may have died in England before 1918 as John married again .
John died in Glasgow in 1922.

thank you

jean
