Hi Rosie, yes I did download the certificate but it was NOT my Mary Ann Barclay.  So I am still looking for Mary A Barclay (Mrs. Annie Scott)

SP index lists her as Mary Ann Isbist... Barclay, other surname Donaldson, 87, mother's maiden surname Bett.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

I did see the marriage to Donaldson but was put off purchasing the certificate. The newspaper snippet dated 1909 shows a notice by wife and family, another by daughter Annie and third by daughter Mrs. Scott.  I presume that Mary Ann is Annie, so who is Mrs. Scott?????.

I downloaded the marriage to Donaldson this morning and it is the correct one, Mary Ann is the daughter of Adam Barclay and Janet (Bett). 

anything and everything to do with the village of Brithdir, near New Tredegar in Gwent.
