Hi
Civil registration in Scotland did not commence until 1855, prior to that you need to check the church records.

No, I couldn't find it there either. The full date is on the birth cert for one of their children and 1849 on another cert, but I've been unable to find the marriage record anywhere. Any help or suggestions would be gratefully received.

Hi
Scotlandspeople marriage OPR's are from the Established Church of Scotland. It doesn't include the Free Church of Scotland, which I think are at the National Arcives of Scotland, nor any other non-conformist churches. Without knowing the church, and there were many, it becomes difficult.

Hi
Its a bit of a long shot but you could see if you can find churches close to where they were living in the 1851 census and see if someone has access to the records.
I would also suggest that you ask a moderator to move the topic to the Lanarkshire Board, hopefully someone there might be able to give you better advice.
