No such birth on Scotlandspeople for any date between 1848 and 1854 and any place in Scotland.

Did she marry in Scotland or England? A Scottish marriage certificate might provide a wealth of additional information.

If not, have you any other possible residences for her?

Have you tried varying the spelling of the surname as widely as possible, in case it's either been noted down or transcribed incorrectly? I found several of my McKie's listed as "McKay", and an Irish Archer listed as he no doubt pronounced it - "Archard"

       I wonder if they were a catholic family, because on Scotlands People's Catholic Registers, there is a Mary Coleman baptised at Coatbridge, Lanarkshire in 1852 to John Coleman and wife Ann Treacy.     Coatbridge is roughly 8 miles east of Glasgow.     ...The first names you gave for her parents are a match for this baptism.
