Also match with someone whose ancestor is James Orr Kennedy b abt 1863 Co Down, father John Orr Kennedy, m Elizabeth Frame 1893 Comber Co. Down. They have common matches with myself and other Cassells matches
Any connections to the descendants on Robert Kidd baptised 1728 Kilconquhar who married 1754 Susanna Peebles and their sons Andrew baptised 1758, Thomas baptised 1761 (my line), John baptised 1767 and Robert baptised 1769 who may have died 1769?
Thanks to all responders. Having invested in some of Scotland's People, it becomes more of a puzzle. The register in Fife (where the groom was minister) records that the banns were duly published, and the couple were married in Edinburgh on 2nd February [1825]. The Edinburgh parish register entry records their marriage as having been on 23 January "3 pro, no objection". I take this to mean 3 proclamations of banns.
The bride was shown in the Kilrenny register as residing in Edinburgh.
No number in Dundas Street is shown in Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, where I first found the marriage, or in either register entry.
In the light of what you kind people have said, I conclude that the marriage was at the bride's residence, and not the kirk.
