Sorry - but you have still not told us when and where Barbara was born.  Can you please supply this information

Quote
then looked further and found barabra's parents were (below is just an assumption based on 2nd hand info)
William Cruickshank Watt
    Birth ??
    Death???
however he apparently married davina robertson who was born around 1880's forfarshire

Are you saying that it is an assumption that Barbara's father was William Cruickshank Watt?  Have you viewed Barbara's birth cert on Scotlands People to confirm that info. 
Your reply also suggests some uncertainty that he married Davina Robertson - there is no Robertson/Watt marriage on SP

Do you have a copy of Barbara's 1938 marriage cert?  If so - does it confirm that her parents were William and Davina?

You need to confirm your information by obtaining a copy of the 1938 marriage cert which will give you the following information:

Her age
Her parents names
Fathers occupation
Mothers maiden name

When you have confirmed her parentage - you can then check for a marriage for her parents which will give their parents names etc
