Hello
The marriage gives Duncan as of Dalnasoidall and there seems to be only only one baptism at Blair Atholl
Duncan 6/9th Feb 1772 of Drumanagich at Balir Atholl s of John Campbell and Ann McDonald.
There is a Christian with the same parents 17/20 May 1764 of Drumnabeachin
The only marriage I can see is at Moulin nr Blair Atholl 7 Aug 1755 . Son William 23.7.1756.
John of Drumanagich bapt 17/19.6.1737 s of Colin Campbell and Christian Graham
And they too married at Moulin 16.3.1733.
There are a couple of options for Margaret Campbell and I'm not confident enough of the area to say which is the most likely.

Looks likely that the marriage was at Fortingall and banns at Blair Atholl but you would need to check the records.

DUNCAN CAMPBELL to MARGARET CAMPBELL

Several possible children father Duncan but no Margaret Campbell's, only one that seems possible but no mothers surname.
