Hello Girlfriday
I think you need to check where your information came from.
Below is the marriage for Robert FORSYTH on the dates you have. You will see his wife was NOT Jean ANDERSON.

Marriage   
FORSYTH   ROBERT    to    JEAN MACKIMMIE   
08/08/1803   137/    30 216   Forres


Or are you looking for Margaret Forsyth who married John James in 1858? That Margaret was born in Duffus in 1825.

Search the OPR births on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk as entries before 1855 show both parents names

There is one entry in the OPRs:

Margaret Forsyth 26 Nov 1794  in Duffus

Did this Margaret die and the name reused by parents?

Neale, just seen your marriage year above of 1803. There looks to be 2 couples therefore with the same names?
