I believe this to be a very good candidate. I am on different Wigtownshire forums gathering local information, would need confirmation rather than just accept. I thank you for relentlessly mulling over the maps and your interest in the post.
best wishes.

Dumfriesshire / robert scott quarryman woolcoats 1926
« on: Monday 23 March 15 12:43 GMT (UK)  »
Robert Scott fathered a male child in 1926.
Birth certificate says child born @ Woolcoats.
Robert was a Quarryman in 1926, and possibly emigrated to Canada.
Sorry, it's all I have.
Hoping that someone has been down this road already...
