Dear Heather, I saw your query this morning and thought I ought to answer since there seems to be little traffic so close to the holidays. The M.S. before Wylie in the document just means "Maiden Surname," so her full name is Betsy McKay Wylie. When looking for her birth in the indexes, whether the printed (film or fiche) ones or the on-line SRO listings, try other forms of Betsy: Betty, Elisabeth, Beth, Betts, etc. If her birth was registered, you should be able to find it. Good luck and best wishes for the holiday season.
