Naturally and inevitably, of course it does, since the 'record' on FamilySearch is an
index listing pointing to the original marriage record on SP. This is not two separate pieces of evidence; it is one and the same.
In summary, the only definite information you have about Agnes Aitken is
- she married Andrew Thomson, portioner of Easter Glentore, in Glasgow in 1777
- she had at least six children
Janet Porter, baptised 7 October 1777 in New Monkland
Marrion, baptised 23 May 1779 in New Monkland
Margaret, baptised 6 March 1781 in New Monkland
Agnes, baptised 27 March 1783 in New Monkland
Mary, baptised 19 February 1786 in New Monkland
James, baptised 12 August 1791 in Glasgow, married Ann Buchanan, died 1855 in Airdrie.
Those are the documented facts. However you can draw certain inferences from the facts.
It would be reasonable to infer that she cannot have been born before say 1740, because she had a child in 1791. It would also be reasonable to infer that she must have been born before 1765, because she could not legally have married until she was 12. In practice, you can probably dock a few years at either end, giving a range of possible birth years between say about 1750 and 1760.
You can also probably infer that she resided in the parish of Glasgow at the time of her marriage, because it was usual for a wedding ceremony to be held in the bride's home. However this is not 100% reliable, and it doesn't mean that she was born in Glasgow.
It is likely that Agnes' mother's maiden name was one of Janet, Marion, Margaret, Agnes and Mary, with a slightly higher probability that it was Janet, but this, again, is not 100% reliable.
What you cannot and must not assume is that her baptism record has survived, and hence that she is one of the ones you have found on SP (or in FamilySearch, which is an
index to the records on SP).
I know this is not very helpful, but you might eventually have to accept that you will never know for certain who Agnes' parents were.
