What address is on Margaret's marriage cert and is her father's occupation given? Where was she married?

Trena
remember that the age given on any census can be up to 2 years out ..................
the householder had to give the age in years, the modern-day transcriber then altered that to birth year.
BUT it all depends on the date when the census was taken vs the birth date
Also ................. the 1841 census on England and Wales censuses (I don't know about the Scottish one) was different again.
The enumerators were supposed to round down to the nearest 5 the age of all people over the age of 15 ......
.... thus someone shown as 45 could actually be any age between 45 and 49.

Hope someone can help with this:
On Canadian census, 1891-1911, my great-gran's birth date is down as 27th March 1857, Daughter who was informant on d/c 14th February 1943 Bedford Halifax Co Nova Scotia,, put down same birth date.
1881 census at 193 Castle St Glasgow Scotland, a married Margaret (John WHYATT) gives age suggesting a c1855 birth year. Her widowed father John MCLUSKY is also in household. Margaret states birth place was Glasgow. Think her father says the same.
M/cert at Dennistoun 16th July 1875, [Marget MCLUSKY] gives age which also suggests c1855. Father down as John MCCLUSKY - mother is Jane STEVENSON.
I think I may have found John MCCLUKY / MCLUSKY households in previous census records but am not positive. One (Dumbarton?) is under MCCLUSKIE. I know Margaret had one sister Mary MCLUSKY born c1852. On all of those, parents & at least some children are all born in Ireland. No idea if they are mine or not.
On Mary's m/cert to James MCKENZIE blacksmith, in 1877, parents are John MCLUSKY & Sarah STEVENSON
Mary's d/c January 1881 gives mother as Janet STEVENSON. Daughter born 1879 named Sarah MCKENZIE
Son Robert MCLUSKY born 29th Feb 1877 - came to Canada with WHYATT family in 1887. Name spelt WYATT on maifest; known as Robert WYATT the rest of his life. Shortly before she died, Margaret told him / siblings in Canada his true surname was MCKENZIE.
Margaret's first daughter born 1881 named Janet Stevenson WHYATT (b/c).
TRY as I might, I cannot find Margaret's birth on SP, nor on www.familysearch.org (can't find Mary's either). Closest is one in Paisley Abbey c1847 (or 1849?). I was leaning toward that one for a long time as there was a marriage for a John MCLUSKY & Sarah STEVENSON which fit in nearby Lochwinnoch. Plus, a marriage for John STEVENSON & Mary WYLIE in Lochwinnoch c1799, listed as Janet's parents on her 1880 d/cert.
Can anyone find Margaret's & Mary's births? How do you feel about any of the pre-1881 census records being my lot? The marriages in Lochwinnoch? Do you think some or all are my family?
Thank you for any help given. Sorry for long post! Trena
