I Greatly appreciate the efforts and information submitted by members. Thank you for all information. I will update info and start searching again. Regards, Theresa Fisher and Lorraine (Wallace).

PM from Theresa:

Hi, thank you for responding. We are looking for the Scottish ancestry and beyond. Mum has lived the Australian side of it and I am helping her. She has most of the Australian info although there has been some "unknown" births revealed yet no luck in finding documents to support. We were having difficulty finding George's parents and i told mum the dates must be wrong. I will talk to her when she gets back to my place and work out our plan from there. I truly did not imagine the great response we have had. Once again, thank you.
Regards
Theresa

I'm wondering about this one for the birth of George Wallace.

George Wallace
Scotland Births and Baptisms
Name George Wallace
Gender Male
Birth Date 14 Oct 1862
Birthplace DAIRSIE,FIFE,SCOTLAND
Father's Name Thomas Wallace
Mother's Name Catherine Simpson

It would make sense that his daughter Georgina was given the middle name of Simpson.

The 2 census shown above have him born c 1863 and I'll repeat the 1901, this time from Find My Past which shows his birth place as Dairsie not Davisie
