Help needed for McCracken family Colmonell

[Brenda]

Can anyone please assist me to clear up the parentage of John McCracken.
 
His death certificate states:
John McCracken died May 13th 1886 [age 48] 114 Naiburn St Glasgow
Married to Elizabeth Gibbon...
He was previously married to Agnes Miller.

His parents,were  John McCracken [Master Baker] deceased & Janet [ nee McCready /McCreadie]

Janet was previously married to James Vint .IGI shows her born abt 1802 Glasgow married James Vint 1822 Glasgow.

I can't find a marriage record for Janet & John McCracken, or a birth record for John Jnr.

Various census show he was born in Colmonell, Ayrshire

1841 he was 7
1851 he was aged 16 Estimated birth year abt 1835
1871 he was 56? B abt 1815
1881 he is 39 Born abt 1842
Perhaps you can understand my confusion.

Cheers

Brenda

Birth and marriage records may not be recorded

Have you found the father's death record to confirm his wife's name?

[Brenda]

I haven't been able to find any record for John McCracken Snr.

Just going on the  marriage certificates for John Jnr stating his father as John McCracken

Re 1851 Census
Looks like the right family.Thank you so much.

HELEN RINT should read VINT. [Daughter from Janet's first marriage to James Vint ]

I have a copy of her death cert. Died in City Poorhouse ,Glasgow Aug 15th 1875. Name given as VENT, but it's her for sure, Mother Janet McCreadie father James Vent [ Vint]

Query re Janet's place of birth. The IGI record for her first  marriage gives her birth place as Glasgow abt 1802? But census states Ballantrae
I have tried everywhere but can't find a marriage record fer her and John McCracken, nor a birth for John Jnr
