Mary Gourley Married Robert McCrea 1853 West Wemyss

[moo]

Good Evening

I am hoping someone may be able to help

On Ancestry I can find a Marriage between Mary Gourlay and Robert McCrea 30 Sept 1853, but on Scotlands People I am unable to find the marriage.

I am hoping Mary's parents will be Robert Gourlay and Mary Taylor.

I have found it lol, I put in the correct spelling this time. 

It didn't help with the parents though

Moo, pre 1855 you seldom get any mention of anything on the Old Parish Registers (father of the bride at most sometimes). Did Mary die in Scotland? Her death cert should include her parents' names.

Mention there of a gravestone for them which should indicate that they died in Scotland.

Hi Monical

I did try to find her death 1895 (burial West Wemyss) to check the parents, again even checking my spelling - nothing.May be the site is playing up - I will try again later.

Hi Moo and Monica

The Wemyss parish records have been transcribed and are on Freereg. Unfortunately no parent's names are given." At Wemyss Parish Church 30 Sep 1853 Robert Macrae, West Wemyss, Collier and Mary Gourlay."

Re Wemyss mi's there I am sure there are a couple of threads on here.

Moo, Mary's death is showing in 1899 in Wemyss I think.
