According to the records there was an Archibald McLean with the mothers maiden name as Proctor born at that time but it was registered in Blackburn. You can order the certificate over the phone to Southport but you will need the reference numbers. You could also try Preston but it's not on the Lancashire BMD site yet so can't provide any references.

Dosen't give that information on the reference but if you search for a Marriage between McLean & Proctor there is one in 1906 in Accrington District of a Angus McLean and Sarah Elizabeth Proctor and in 1911 they were living in Stanley Street Accrington and had a daughter Flora born in 1909/1910.

Yes they still issue births, deaths & marriage Certs on the day.
But requests for copies of older records have to be made at Preston.
