It's certainly the only worthwhile place to search, given the lack of coverage on other sites.

Comments would be better directed to the OP to explain how to check what the coverage of (for example scotland births) actually includes.

eg http://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=60143  . Not much at all really

All census look up transcriptions are Crown Copyright http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/

Came into this query a bit late but perplexed about Geocrab. Let Google solve the problem.

They're all ganging up on me now on here!
Well, I've looked up the birth, on ScotlandsPeople, and it appears to be the right one.
So all's well that ends well.
