I don't know if the situation has changed since the 15th Oct, I've had this message from Scotland People each time I've reported that the image is illegible.
"Thank you for contacting ScotlandsPeople.

Due to the Covid-19 virus our services are restricted at this time and I’m afraid we will not be able to rescan this image at present. Accordingly, I’m refunding six credits to your ScotlandsPeople account.

I’m sorry I’m unable to help you further on this occasion, but do please keep a note of this and any further legibility queries that you have so in future we will be able to look into them on your behalf."

Thank you so much Falkyrn  this is a great help.  I did get the records from Scottish people.  This was the worst one.  I'll certainly let them know about any other ones that I come across.
Thank you  bikermickau for your information.  I will let them know about this one and see what happens.  Will update with the result.
Regards, CC

CC, I think Falkryn's suggestions look sound.

This looks to be Annie's birth details over in Ireland www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QL3W-DB5X Likely this surname will be a nightmare on spelling variations. I searched for g*g*n!

Is this Felix and Annie after their marriage in 1891:

Felix Hamill 29 carter b. Glasgow
Annie Hamill 26 b. Ireland
Alice Hamill 4 b. Glasgow
James Hamill 11 months

Address: 39 Villiers St, Glasgow/ Dennistoun

Confirmation of Felix's parents from his birth details on the FS index www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VQQH-GX8

His family in 1871:

Felix Hamill 45 puddler b. Ireland
Bridget Hamill 35 b. Ireland
Margt Ann Hamill 15 b. Ireland
Edward Hamill 12
Felix Hamill 16 (should read 10/11)
Mary Hamill 7
Eliza Hamill 5
Edward Cumming 77 Lodger b. Ireland

Address: 6 Cobden St, Springburn Lanarkshire

The birth certs for the Hamill children from the 1860s should include date and place of parents' marriage.

Thank you MonicaL you are correct about the surname it is a nightmare.  I have three distinct Spellings so far.  I started off with Geggan and then I found a record with Geoghegan and I happen to have an Aunt with that name so I guessed it had been misspelt so I kept going and then I found one with Geoghan.  Without a doubt all the same family.

Sometimes I think my computer will just refuse to work one day.  The screen will say "I am done researching for the day get back to me tomorrow.    .
Regards, Caroline

That's interesting Bridgets maiden name is Canning.  I couldn't find anything under that name maybe because its Cumming.  I'll take a look.  Thanks again. CC

Had a quick look Bridgets name is Canning.

Not wanting to add to the mix of surnames... ...but, I did see this RC baptism which I thought might be for daughter Margaret Ann Hamill:

Margaret Anne Hamill
Baptism Age: 0
Birth Date: 1854
Baptism Date: 2 Sep 1854
Baptism Place: Antrim, St Patrick's, Belfast city, Ireland
Diocese: Down and Connor
Father: Felix Hamill
Mother: Bridget Connor

The Scottish birth regs do have Bridget as Canning it seems (from the Family Search Index).
