Hi Longberry
I presume you have their marriage cert from Scotland's people www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk? It will cost 6 units (£1.20).
This will give you the name of her parents and her age at marriage. There are a few Jemima'sshowing on the IGI but without a dofB, it's difficult to say if any of them are her.
Do you have any other information - children, etc. The various census information can also be checked, if you don't have access.

This might be her on the I881:
Castlehill Bothy, Olrig
District 39 ED 6 Page 50
Jemima Manson, 21, farm servant, b. Olrig
There is also an interesting family on the 1881 in Edinburgh. Maybe some connection:
3 North St James Street, 2nd floor. Edinburgh, St Cuthberts
District 685/2 ED 58 Page 6
James Miller, 60, carter, b. Orig
Sinclair Manson, wif, 55, b. Olrig
Alexander Miller,34, mason,b. Olrig
Jemima Miller, 27, dressmaker, b. Olrig
Annie Clyne, visitor, 27, laundreymaid, b. Olrig

The IGI www.familysearch.org has
Jemima Manson ,b. 11 August 1859, Bowermaddon, Bower. Parents - James Manson and Margaret Johnstone. This is verified by her marriage details.

I did have a look at the cert. It was very poor but I managed to see her parents' names  You could contact SP (via their contact form) and ask for a decent copy. They are very good.

joe
Am i safe in assuming that William died between 1836 and 1841. That was the year of his son.s birth and the Census.
Was it common practice in the Census to use the wifes maiden name?
Hope you had a nice Christmas?
