On the IGI at Familysearch there is an extracted record for the birth of Daniel Christie on 19th February 1861 in Ayr.

The parents are listed as Hugh Christie and Mary Cowan.

The same location has the extracted record of the marriage of Hugh Christie and Mary Cowan in Ayr on 12th October 1860.

If you go to Scotlands People http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ a pay site you should be able to download and view the actual certificates. if this is the correct Hugh the marriage certificate should also provide details of his and his brides parents.
