Does a full marriage certificate from 1857 contain the address of witnesses, while copies only have the names of the people

Hi,

The nearest one to your date that I have is for 1864 in Edinburgh. Only the names of the witness is recorded, so no address.

Do you use Scotlands People at all? This is where you can view all Scottish records. At the moment they have an offer of 30 free credits available. (usually a pay site). Just log in and type the word "scotland " in the voucher box.

Hope this is helpful to you.
