The best, quickest place for a free search is the Mormon Family Records at
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/sear...rch_census.asp
The above link is for census records, but lots of choices in the left hand column. In my case, they have most Scottish church records on microfilm from the 60's and have since indexed them on line.
Unlike the Scottish Records Office, their data base is FREE...:)
...gives the parents from the Christening records... Go to your nearest LDS (Mormon) place and ask for help. They won't try and convert you...:)
Good luck with your searching.
