Thank you very much whoever you are! :) I do have this certificate and know a few pieces of info on my dad but need to know more. He was also in some sort of ancient order of the buffaloes or something and I have a military picture of him in an unrecognisable uniform circa late 1940. Don't quite know where to go from here, any suggestions for me?

  Sometimes you can be lucky with FreeCEN - http://www.freecen.org.uk/cgi/search.pl or FREEREG - http://www.freereg.org.uk/cgi/Search.pl

   But I think they may have a long way to go before all Scottish counties have been transcribed.   I had a look for Ida, but couldn't see anything in these lists.
