Hi Guys
I am hoping someone can help me track down a baptism...though not sure if I should post here or Berwickshire.
I am looking for the baptism of Elizabeth Weir. According to the 1851 - 1891 census's she was born somewhere between 1812 - 1816 in Denholm, Cavers.
She married John Middlemiss on 13th June 1834 in Gordon, Berwickshire. According to the marriage register she was of that parish. Unfortunately no parents were named.
I have looked in both places but don't seem to be able to find a baptism for her. Can anyone help ?
Thanks !

Why not download a copy of her death cert as that should show her parents names and mothers maiden name?
