I couldn't find Barbara anywhere else, either.
There are several Johns, weavers, born in feasible years - but no way of knowing if any of them could be your John's father or not:

And that's only in Glasgow - there's no telling where he lived in the census years, unfortunately.
You may have to accept it's a dead end, John.

Yes I think you may be right AG. Once again many thanks for your help. By the way I have found Brian Moore b1934 Sheffield. He was killed in a traffic accident 1994 Scotland. Found his family on Facebook, sent messages but they don't seem to want to reply and unsure of any other way of contacting them. Oh well that's how things go
