EDIT: Changed this. William called his first son George so if he followed the traditional naming pattern then his father was George.
You will need one of william's marriage certificates to confirm his father's name as there are several options. Do you have either of them?

So this looks like william with his parents in 1851

Christiana with her parents. Ancestry have made a complete mess of this transcription. The Bullochs are actually neighbours. Living next door are James Garbert 45 Hannah Garbert 52 wife and Elizabeth Garbert daughter age 13 so they may be related. But in 1881 William's daughter Jane was with her grandparents called Duke? (it's Marmaduke) and Jane Garbutt,
