Hi there,

I can't find a marriage for the two, but from a few of William Munn and Mary Dykes' children's birth/christening records, their full names are given as William Lang Munn and Mary Auchincloss Dykes.

There is a 17th May 1804 christening in Paisley for William Lang Munn to parents James Munn and Janet Sclater. There is also a marriage for the 2nd June 1787 in Paisley for this couple.

For Mary, there is two possible births/christenings; one in 1804 and the other in 1809, both to parents James Dykes and Agnes Leyel (or Lyle). Again, there is a marriage for this couple (Agnes is listed as Leyle this time) for the 28th June 1800 in Paisley.

Hope this helps you get back another generation!
