Searching for information on the marriage of Thomas Thomson b1833c Glenluce & Isabella Donnon b 1832c Glasserton. Found a marriage on the IGI 2 Aug.1860 Glasserton but the bride was transcribed as Isabella Dorman!! ???Would like to confirm this is the right marriage. Trying to find the name of the parents. Would appreciate any guidance on this.

I'd not discount that marriage it's more than likely transcriber/clerics error. As it was 1860 you should be able to download the cert from Scotlands people that will give you a wealth of info.

Hello Woodlea
Yes do consider mistranscription. I have a Thomasina Dorman born 1905 Dorman, died 1906 as Dornan, both entries on SP. It is Dorman and I have the cemetery record with Dorman. Does help as not being common like Ann & Elizatheth.
May I ask whom Isabella's parent are if you have gotten the certificate.

Hello waiteohman
Have not bought the certificate yet but have ordered the micro fiche of Oldluce from the LDS. Not arrived yet. I have penciled in John Donnon & Margaret Douglas for Isabella's parents. Perhaps I will get some prove. Thought the micro fiche a better bet as I may find some other family members.

There is an entry on the Wills & Testaments section of Scotlands People for John Donnan:
John Donnan, 27/12/1859, Crofter, residing at Ravenstone in Parish of Glasserton, Wigtown Sheriff Court SC19/41/11
This together with the 1861 census, adds to what you already have:
Margaret Donnan 70, retired grocer, b. Glasserton
Thomas Thompson 27, son in law, blacksmith, b. Glenluce
Isabella Thompson/Donnan, 26, daughter, b. Glasserton
Margaret Mcc Thompson 4 Months, granddaughter, b. Glasserton
Address: Farm Of Ravenstone Prera To Duelling, Glasserton

For Thomas, this is the most obvious 1841 entry:
Robert Hughan 70, mason
Mary Ann Hughan 35
Thomas Thomson 8
Address: Main Street, Old Luce
And in 1851:
James Hughan 48, Blacksmith Employ 91 (as transcribed!) Men & 1 Boy, b. Glenluce
Helen Hughan 47, b. Whithorn
Agnes Hughan 23
John Hughan 22
Janet Hughan 18
James Hughan 14
Elizabeth Hughan 11
Isabelle Hughan 10
Mary Hughan 10
Thomas Thomson 17, nephew, blacksmith appr. b. Glenluce
Address: Sorbie
As Madpants recommends, that MC will give you the final verification

PS One of my ggggrandmothers was Durnan from Co Monaghan, can't begin to tell you how many variants I have found of her surname!

Hi MonicaLesl
Thank you for all the great information. This must be the right family as Thomas's son John married a Jane Hughan. Wonder why he was living with another family perhaps his parents were dead. The micro fiche may reveal more.

Hello waiteohman
Sorry I have taken so long to confirm that the name is definitely Isabella Donnan. Microfilm not a lot of help but have found some one else researching the same family & they also have Donnan.
