Any suggestions or direction would be most helpful. The person's name is John Baird and he was my gggrandfather. In the 1861 Kilsyth census, he is listed as being born in Edinburgh, Mid Lothian between 1806-1810. In the 1871 census, for Kilsyth, Stirlingshire he is listed as being born in 1806 in Edinburgh, Inveresk. The 1851 says Biggar, Lanarkshire so I am hoping the majority rules. In his 1875 burial record from Kilsyth, he is listed as being 65 years old and the ages fluctuate in the various census withing the range I mentioned above. His parents were James Baird and Agnes Nicol as listed on his burial record. Thank you, Bill Baird
