	I think that Glasgow marriage looks a distinct possibility. Now, if we could find a birth for George to confirm his parents names that might prove further confirmation of the marriage.

	Oh, well done Greyghost! I'm pretty confident that that is the correct marriage. Scots and Irish just loved naming their children for Grandparents. I was out of credits myself or I would also have been tempted to look at that.
