I assume these are the parents of the bride/groom?  Where was the marriage (I assume somewhere in Scotland) and how old was their child?  Perhaps we can try and find the marriage between a Ferguson and Mary Ann Taylor?
Richards, Seddon, Welsh, Clark, Suttie, Ritchie, Tinworth, Harrington

Hello CA

The marriage was between John Chalmers and Mary Ann Ferguson 1857 Glasgow.
Mary Ann was born about 1837 in Ireland according to the 1861 Census, and aged 19 years on the marriage entry.

Good Evening

This is from Mary Ann's death entry, but I still can't make the fathers name out.
