Would appreciate help on trying to order a marriage certificate (if possible) for George Robertson & Christina McGregor. They have a son born 1848 so I'm guessing they were married around 1845. Found a website Scotlands People but I need to register. Does anybody use it? |

We all use that website but I can't find their marriage on it. |

I can't find a marriage I searched 1840 to 1850. |

LDS shows a marriage for George Robertson & Christian McGrigor. 26th May 1839. Forteviot, Perth. Would you mind Betty Boo checking this with your website? |

You won't get a cert from that date, civil registration in Scotland started on 01./01/1855. |

In Glen's post, for 1866 read 1855. Birth regos after 1861 also give parents marriage details. |

Sorry for the typo, meant to say that a birth cert for 1855 is the holy grail of Scottish certs, they should have the most info of all. |

The 1839 marriage is on scotlandspeople OPR (Old Parish Records). You will need to register and buy credits to view the entry. |
