Thank you for all the information.
I am not sure this is the same family after all. Joseph lists his father as a labourer on the marriage record. But I will leave it here incase someone else needs this information.

I have Joseph Reid (1875) married to Doretha McCann (1879 circa) Belfast they married on July 4 1898 and had the following children.

Joseph Reid Apr 29 1899

John Thomas Reid
Oct 25 1902

Jane Caroline, Carlisle Evelyn Thompson Reid (MORRISON) Jan 24 1904-Dec 25 1950
 (my grandmother on the paternal side)

Minnie Reid
May 4 1907

Frank Reid
Oct 23 1908

unknown Reid M
June 17 1912

Agnes Reid

Elizabeth Reid

Birth of daughter
Annie Reid

     In reply to Annie (Reply 16). Like you I have looked up dozens of Scottish 1855 Birth, Marriage and Death Certificates.  My own 2 x Great Grandmother died 1855 and her D.C. lists her children in order, their ages and whether alive or deceased. 1855 Marriage Certificates carry a lot of information, including birth place of bride and groom, and says if birth not registered.
     Out of curiosity I have now looked at the 1855 Marriage Certificate of Peter Morrison and Anne Larnock. Under the column headed, 'Birthplace, and when and where registered.' for Peter Morrison it says, "Born but not Registered on January 15th 1820 at Sutherlandshire, Scotland." For Anne Larnock,  "Born on May 1st 1822 at Lerwick, Shetland."
               Regards,     Dod.
Thanks I did post this after you. I am resigned that I cannot find any other information on Peter Morison and Barbara McLeod. I can find nothing but their marriage record, and birth records for 3 of their children. I have searched records in Scotland Ireland and England. Thanks for clarifying that marriage record.

It states on Peters marriage record as in the screenshot attached. "Born but not registered on January 18th 1920 at Sutherlandshire Scotland.

Thanks everyone for the replies.

I do have the records that trace the descendants of Peter Morison and Barbara McLeod. I am a direct descendant of both.

I am seeking information on how to trace Peter and Barbara further back. I think they were born around 1780/90's maybe in Sutherland, but perhaps on one of the Islands.

Sorry that is the wrong document that is Peter 1st and Ann Larnoch.

In 1851 Peter 32  & Ann 36 are in Midlothian with sons Peter 5 & John 3.  Children b Midlothian

Peter & Ann are both shown as b Caithness  ED 76 Page 7 Line 2

In 1861 & 1871- he is in Glasgow - b Sutherland

Your opening post says Peters birth was not registered "according to his second marriage cert".  When & where was his second marriage & who did he marry?

To confirm his parentage - look for his death & download a copy of his death cert
Thanks for your reply.

I have attached the record of Peter's second marriage to Ann Larnoch June 8 1855, Tradeston,Glasgow,Lanark,Scotland
