I'm hoping someone can confirm for me the birth date of John William Atwell in Glasgow in 1911 and the names of his parents. I'm hoping his parents will be James Lawther (Lauder/Lauther) Atwell and Maria (nee Hamilton)? If I'm wrong it ends a family myth that John, later Sir John, was a relation.

Thanks in advance,
Frank

There is only one John William Atwell born 1911 in Glasgow coming up on Scotland's People born Partick District of Glasgow Lanarkshire Unfortunately there is no image available to view but the data reference to order it is 646/03/1633
If you use the link Julie posted you will be able to order it from the Scotland's People site
Good luck with it :)
