So Martha Cl**** exists (christened 4 July 1816 Glenluce and I have the marriage of Martha Clieve to Samuel McClellan 7/11/1837 in Gillespie Glenluce.  Is there anywhere else I can look to confirm this?

Kirsty, from the info you posted on censuses for the Galloways, Martha, mother, looks to have been born in Old Luce. This looks a possible for her christening - under McClieve:

MARTHA MCCLIEVE     Christening on 13 FEB 1782 in Old Luce, Wigtown
Parents: DAVID MCCLIEVE and GRACE MCMILLAN

Apart from Martha, other children showing to parents David and Grace:

1. ANDREW MCCLIEVE Christening: 15 MAR 1780
2. PETER MCCLIEVE Christening: 12 FEB 1784
3. JEAN MCCLIEVE Christening: 22 AUG 1788
4. DAVID MCCLIEVE  Christening: 26 NOV 1790
5. JAMES MCCLIEVEChristening: 04 MAR 1793 Old Luce
6. ANTHONY MCCLIEVE Christening: 07 MAY 1800

Submitted entry for parents' marriage on IGI:

GRACE MC MILLAN and DAVID MC CLIEVE Marriage on 27 JUN 1779 in Old Luce, Wigtown

For David Galloway, father of Grace, husband of Martha, there is this submitted entry on IGI (may show on SP?):

David Galloway Birth: 09 JUN 1782 Of Muniloch, Wigtown/ Christening:11 JUN 1782 Kirkmaiden, Wigtown
Parents: William Galloway and Elizabeth McKissock    
Marriages: Martha McCleave

Monica

Added: Just noticed, this David's parents' names (William/Elizabeth), don't show on the list of names of children we have for David and Martha so perhaps a question mark on this entry?

[MonicaL]

Just checked the OPRs for the children of David and Martha. Kirsty, the two submitted entries you found for addtional children were correct:

23/10/1811   GALLOWAY PETER to DAVID GALLOWAY/MARTHA CLEAVE in Kirkmaiden   
02/04/1813   GALLOWAY MARGARET to DAVID GALLOWAY/MARTHA MCCLEAVE  in Kirkmaiden

Not knowing when they married, nothing shows on the OPRs, we are probably missing the early born children.

Back to the Mclellans for a bit, and Samuel....

Abiam, was Samuel's father also called Samuel? This entry would fit for birth/christining (can't tell what it is from the OPR index):

10/05/1810   CLELLAN   SAMUEL to SAMUEL CLELLAN/ROSANNA DONNAN in New Luce   

As Dave said, from your earlier post on Samuel's mother, Donnan it was 

Rosanna/Anna would also fit with above, the death cert you have, and the name of Samuel and Grace's daughter Rosanna b. 1842.

Two other children showing on IGI to Samuel and Rosanna:

1. ANDREW CLELLAN  Christening: 27 APR 1806 New Luce
3. ELIZABETH MCCLELLAN Christening: 01 FEB 1804 New Luce
