Thank you all for your take on this; it prompted me to take a closer look at the documents. The first one, dated 6 September 1806, is entitled PROCLAMATIONS. and the second one, dated 26 September 1806, is entitled PROCLAIMED and MARRIED. It mentions that Jean is from the Parish of Paisley. Although we see the names Jean and Janet being used, I am confident that this is the same couple. Unfortunately, I have been unable to go further back with John. I think he had a brother named Joseph who was a witness at the birth of James, my gg-grandfather. Is it possible that John's father would have been named James also? I could look for a James McFadyen or Seumas MacPhàidein.
