The Old Parish Records images are now available on ScotlandsPeople. I'm guessing your Elizabeth married before 1855 (hence you not knowing her parents) so there might (and I really do stress that ) be some more information.
Thanks yes I have Elizabeth's proclaimation to marriage I have her death cert the coroners report etc but no mention of parents Agnes King and James Johnstone do fit the picture
Thanks again for your reply KateNZ
