If you have the  1902 marriage cert his parents names and mothers maiden name will be shown.

You can use that info to find their marriage on Scotlands People and also to look for David on the 1881/1891/1901 censuses

www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

There is a possible 1881 entry - parents Alexander & Isabella but you need to confirm his parents names from the marriage cert first

Alexander McKENZIE – head age 37 born Urquhart
Probably Urquhart in Ross and Cromarty as opposed to Urquhart in Inverness-shire or Urquhart in Moray.
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.
