Marriage of Charles Scott and Elizabeth George, July 1886. The groom's father's address is 'The Orchard' (it was Orchard House at his death in 1903). The bride's address is Dunerbuck (also spelled Dunarbuck elsewhere). This house is associated with the Scott family in several newspaper items in the 20th century, so I assume it became the family residence.

I think the coverage of more recent dates (late 20th century onwards) in the BNA is sparse.

There used to be a free online digitised archive of the Glasgow Herald but not sure how recent it was, and I haven't found it just now.

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.
