with his parents being married in 1850 Who are Sarah John and Ann I wonder?
I have been trying to explain to you that I am sure that the couple in Glasgow are not the couple of the same names who were married in Islay in 1850. That couple stayed in Islay and had William c 1851, Janet c 1852, Isabella c 1854, Mary 1855, James 1857 and Gilbert, who was born and died in Islay in 1860, and his mother Mary Morrison died a few days after baby Gilbert.
Your Archibald's mother Mary was clearly alive and kicking after her namesake in Islay had died, because she is in the 1861 and 1871 censuses with Archibald.
Your Archibald's parents had Sarah c 1842, John c 1845, Ann c 1846, Archibald in 1850 or 1851, Peter c 1852 and Catherine c 1855. Therefore they must have been married about 1840/1841 but there is no record of the marriage, or of any of the children's baptisms. It's possible, but unlikely, that they didn't marry at all. Either way, the 1850 marriage has nothing to do with your Archibald's family.
OK I get that. Thanks.

No Peters between 1840 - 1855 with a father of Archibald.
Many Catherines on the Statutory but none with a mother's maiden name of Morrison.
