I'd probably scratch last 3.  Separate marriage listed for parents and maiden name for mother Holliday.

Thanks Dave. I have wondered if the Wakefield marriage is the right people? I am hoping to find someone with the same family but this might be a long shot. I did go through the original Moffat Parish registers. The family did have some Unitarian members too and I have no idea where to find those records?

What is SP?

Thanks again,

Debbie

My apologies. - SP is ScotlandsPeople - http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/

Go here* and register first to give it a try for free. 

Once you are in SP don't be too specific with your search.  1 credit gives you up to 25 possible matches.

Edited because I don't think I was making too much sense.  Hope the above is clearer now.
