Maybe the baptismal names of their children would help?  This area seems to follow the Scottish naming procedures fairly religiously ie first son after the husband's father 2nd son after the wife's father; first daughter after the wife's mother, 2nd daughter after the husband's mother. 

Worth looking at anyway!  ;D  Good luck.
