Per my reply #20, men would 'sign up' at their local recruiting office - Glasgow in Hugh's case - but would then be sent elsewhere for selection (in this case Padgate), where he would have been allocated his service number & then training. As the local offices didn't control selection, they aren't shown on the list. The creation of a selection board at Edinburgh is discussed in parliament here: https://api.parliament.uk/historic-h...oard-edinburgh
But if the lady in Canada has something as precise as a date, does she also have his service number? If she does and it matches, then surely you have your answer as to whether its the same man?
Re ordering the birth certificate, yes, you can order it online, but you need to pay for it with a credit/debit card, not the site credits.
