Hi
Doing Cormack research I recorded the data you mention - I show Margaret and Janet Keith as sisters and Margaret's dau Catherine Sutherland marrying 1869 Donald Cormack son of Janet.
Donald died 1879 Smerlie Latheron.  I have cert if you want data. 
In 1871 they had 2 children - Donaldina aged 8 and John A aged 3 mns.
Same place 1881 Catherine is head of household.
Which child of Donald and Catherine is your line?

To John Cormack and Jane Keith only.
They married : Latheron 26 Feb 1824. He was not in 1841 census. Jane was with children Donald and Catherine in 1841.

Donald C b 1828 m1869 Catherine Sutherland:
Donaldina Cormack aged 8 in 1871 shows as a daughter Cormack but he married Cath Sutherland  in 1869.
Donaldina is recorded in microfiche  as child:
Donaldina Sutherland b 20 Sep 1862 Osclay Latheron to Catherine Sutherland.

This website is great for searching for Cormack births.  Other names can be researched too if you take it back to the basic .com. I found it really helpful when I was researching my Cormacks
