This marriage shows on the Scotlands's People website. It could just be coincidental, but Rosetta McCallum is not a common name - only 1 on the 1901 census, a member of your family. The marriage is in the same RD as the 1901 census shows the family.
SP is a pay to view site - £7 buys you 30 credits. 1 credit will buy a page of results such as below - up to about 25 results per page. It will then cost 5 credits to look at the image and download as long as a birth is over 100 years ago, marriage 75 years and death 50 years. Younger than that and you would have to buy the certificate.
The site can be manipulated - I started with Rosetta McCallum marriage 1910-1930 and was able to reduce the parameters until 1918 was the only choice. You can do the same with County and district.

Try their site yourself, there are 2 Agnes McCallum marriages Paisley 1912 and 1913 for example, 4 Jane's 1901-1913 etc. If you can find a birth/s from the marriages you would come forward a generation and so on.

patchem and stuart: the John (Alexander) McCallum born in 1911 is my father. His father, also John, was born May 15, 1876.
And the Hendry McCallum and family in the 1901 Census is actually Henry McCallum, my great-grandfather (John's father).

patchem: you seem to have found a ship's manifest. Could you possibly check to see if my grandfather, John McCallum, was a 'stoker' on the Loongana, which was a purpose built passenger ship built by Wm Denny & Bros, Dumbarton in 1904? She left the Clyde on September 1, 1904 and arrived in Melbourne, Australia on October 7, 1904. The Loongana carried passengers and the mail between Melbourne and Launceston in Tasmania until 1935. My grandfather was supposedly a member of the crew of that ship.

Is this your family - seems to have all the correct names here. 1911 census not available except via Scotland'sPeople. You will need Scotland's People website to check for marriages of the siblings and then possible children for them etc. It is a Pay to View site - £7 for 30 credits. 1 credit will get you a list of possibles within parameters that you set, a further 5 credits will let you look at the detailed record within a time scale. 100 years for births, 75 for marriages and 50 for deaths. More recent than that and you would have to send off for certificates.

John McCallum, 1876, Greenburn, in old tree of Gretchen on here.

I think Gretchen has John McCallum born in 1911, unspecified place, in her new tree, and John McCallum born 1911 in Launceston, Australia in a previous tree.

So ignore John McCallum emigration in 1949, above.

Also Elizabeth, 30, Agnes R, 10, Ian,6.
From 42 Otago Street, Glasgow. He was a Fitter, she a Housewife.

There are quite a few John McCullums, so need some birth dates to confirm.
Agnes and Ian not in Gretchen's tree.

I'm visiting Scotland from the US in May and searching for descendants of my Scottish grandfather's siblings. My grandfather was John McCallum (emigrated to Australia), his siblings were Alexander (emigrated to Canada), Jeanie, Agnes, Mary, and Rosetta. Parents were Henry and Elizabeth (Dodds) McCallum. Seems like Paisley was the area most everyone lived in or around.

I'd love to meet some relatives and learn a bit about where my grandfather came from.
