Marriage Record...

[Naizam]

Hello everyone, need some help

I have a marriage record for MATHEW JAMISON / JONET MILER - date is supposed to be 01/02/1700 Place is Kilsyth.

I think I can make out the Mathew Jamison but not much else. Can anyone transcribe their entry for me?

[GR2]

Seems to be the 10th rather than the 1st.

10    Compired Mathow Jamison
        and gav In [.orro..] parish
        and gave up his name to
        be proclamed with Jonet
        miler In this parish

"Compired" = compeared. Can't think what his parish is.

The marriage itself (separate from the proclamation on 10 Jan) is the last entry on the page, Feb 1, no further information given.

[GR2]

Bookbox is right.

feb 1  maried mathow ----------*
         Jamison and Jonet Miler

* the clerk has obliterated a wrong name

[Bookbox]

Bookbox is right.

But can't read the parish - looks like corrown ?

You're brilliant the two of you.

Only town I can find that's similar is Corran? Any other parishes come to mind?

[GR2]

I have looked through a list of parishes in a reasonable radius and can't see any that fit. Do you have the baptisms of any of their children? Which parish are they in?

[Naizam]

You are awesome!

Hadn't started on the kids yet but on checking for Christian Jamieson it shows the Parish as

Carriden, West Lothian, Scotland

That must be it!!!
