Morning Chrissie
As most of the events you are looking for are "recent" in genealogical terms, you will have to use the two sites giving direct access to the Scottish Statutory Records and to those for England & Wales-
www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk
www.findmypast.co.uk
Both are Subscription sites.
=================================
On SP, there are four AR Births in 1933 for Scotland, with one being in Rutherglen. None in East Kilbride.
To obtain AR's Mother's Name, you would have to order up a Full Copy of the Birth Record from GRO SCotland - a Link is provided.
That will cost about UKĀ£14, say US$20, and will take about two weeks for delivery.
Normally it will have the names of both parents; and the date and location of their Marriage, along with other details such as the name of the Informant, who is often the maternal grandmother of the child, ie the mother's mother.
Those are all good clues to working back in to earlier generations.
---------------------
ALL Scottish SR Birth Records normally have the TIME of Birth as well as the Date.
English and Welsh SR Birth Records ONLY have the TIME of Birth IF there were multiple Birth involved, eg Twins, Triplets etc.
A frequent cause of confusion.
Scottish SR BMD Records generally have more details than English and Welsh.
===========================
FMP shows that AR married BM in 1953 in Bournemouth, in the April-May-June Quarter, wih a slight chance that it was in late March that year, due to the Quarterly Reporting System used.
Again there is a link to the GRO Southport Lancashire, for ordering Full Copies at very similar cost and delay.
===========================
Note that at both GROs, the records are filed by the Volume or Folio, Page method, so you require that information when using the links.
===========================
His second marriage to JG was in the same Quarter of 1978
BM died in 1985, being born 26th April 1933, so slightly older than AR.
These appear to be BM's children-
