Hi Alex,
   Could you give us the names of the parents from the marriage certificate and Annie McDonalds age when she married. It may help in locating them prior to the marriage and then after the marriage.
 
 Regards
Mariac

the age of annie mcdonald was 23 in the marriage certificate and her address  something (can't make it out) kinkell, urquhart.

the parents were respectively john cameron and margaret ? again can't make it out john address at the time of his marriage looks like croftesumie, killearnan

and
james mcdonald and margaret mackay

hope this helps

Hi Alex
  I think this is James and Margaret McDonald in the 1891 &1901 census

1891 Newton Kinkell Crofters House  Urquhart & Logie Wester ED 9 pg 1
 James McDonald 1828 Kirkhill Inverness  Crofter
Margaret  do        1831  Lochcarron Rossshire
Donald M Cameron 1880 Urquhart  Scholar  grandson
Jane McRae    1886       Urquhart  granddaughter

1901  Newton of Kinkell ED 9 pg 4
James McDonald    1832    Kilmorack        Crofter
Margaret   do        1831   Lochcarrron
Donald Cameron  1880  Urquhart   grandson stonemason &Builder
James McDonald  1887  Inverness Grandson
Mary McKay   1846  boarder   b Cromarty former Domestic servant

and Iam thinking that Donald Cameron may be son of John and Annie. Trying to find the census with them all in together.

Maybe new eyes are needed here. I cannot seem to find a family to suit.
