Annie - apologies for the delay in thanking you... got some diearies from the Afghan war, plus a marvellous old book, and they (and that thing called work) have kept me away, as usual, from my own family history.
Sincere thanks for all your thinking on this. I hadn't really considered the batch searches, haven't used them for a few years and have fallen out of the habit.
For the other points:
1) All I can say is not in the Clunie graveyard, which I tramped around in 2002, and then got the MIs later, but worth looking into. My feeling is they weren't in Clunie, but I woin't rely on my feelings!
2) 1841 is 'Born in County? N', so that's consistent.
3) I made one post of Talking Scot a little while ago, then forgot about it. Thanks - I will get over there.
4) OPRs: I have marriage of Donald Cameron and Catherine Campbell 15th Aug 1837 (in the absence of anyone else, I'm 90% confident they're mine)which says 'both of this Parish' (Caputh), no witnesses mentioned (from scotlandspeople). No clues on the childrens' birth OPRs either really - all very basic.
I spent some credits on the scotlandspeople 1841 census looking at Campbells and Camerons in the Clunie/Caputh area, with nothing positive. Thanks again Annie, you have given me some good ideas.
