I suggest you create an account at https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ then carry out searches on those surnames yourself. Your request is far too broad to receive a detailed response from here. However, I did just undertake a search at ScotlandsPeople of PETRIE birth records relating to Bridgeton, to get an idea of the kind of results you might find. Between 1855 (when civil registration started in Scotland) and 1980 there are 47 instances, at least some of which would probably be of interest to you.

You can carry out searches for free, but copies of any certificates, parish record or census records are subject to a fee. Once used to the method in which the website produces results relating to your areas of interest, you should find it quite easy to pinpoint surviving records of your relatives.
