Maybe John b. 1929 never knew who his father was or simply had no memory about him? Could explain why he gave another family name (maternal family) for his father's when he married. You have his birth registration, so you do have the correct details for him I think.

Do you know anything about John's early years? Was he raised by his mother Mary?

Added: Did Mary marry a James Begley?

The info found was from the Valuation Roll. This only lists the name of the householder, not any other people in the same household.

You were right to ask if there are Registers of Electors. See previous replies referring you to Ayrshire Archives.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
