You are going to need to find someone that it's going to the records office in Edinburgh unless you can get there yourself. BMD's for Scotland are found on

http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/

but it only covers births 1855-1906, marriages 1855-1931, deaths 1855-1956

The only other thing you can do is to hope that Phillip Arthur Ball's death was registered in Scotland as the registry will show the names of both his parents

Mhairi Queen of Scots goes to the Edinburgh Records Office fairly often & posts a thread on the Records Board before she goes.
She usually offers to look up births that aren't records on Scotlands People.
