I had a look in Seafin Presbyterian Church records as both surnames appear in the marriage records. However the marriage you are searching for is not listed. The register commences July 1846, could it have been before then? Another church with similar surnames which might be worth checking out is Bellasis Presbyterian Church.

Yes, and 1911 census gives number of years married which you can use as a guide for searching the civil registration index.

Yes I have done that but can't find any record for them also the year on the cences record may not be rite as there first child was born 2 years before that.would be uncommon to have children them times out of marriage. Can't understand why there is no record as it is some time between 1880 to 1886 .
