Hi

You haven't given any info as to their birthyears

If they were born, married or died from 1855 onwards - their parents names and mothers maiden name will be on their birth/marriage/death certs which can be viewed on Scotlands People (pay per view so you need to buy credits)

You should be able to buy a photo of their headstones from The MBGRG  http://www.mbgrg.org/ancestor_intro.shtml .
They are both listed. George remarried after Mary died.
