Where did you get the information about the marriage ? Have you viewed the actual entry or was it just the index? There may be place names/occupations mentioned. Have you found any death entries for the couple? There may be a headstone somewhere. The pre registration records are for the established Church of Scotland. The Cordiners may have been baptised in St.James Episcopal Church in Cruden (in which case they won't show in scotlandspeople) If John senior was a fisherman his family are more likely to have all been born in the same parish. The John Cordiner mentioned by Flattybasher was a farmer. If his dad was an agricultural labourer, there's a good chance he'd have moved frequently & his offspring could have been born in different parishes! What does the christening record for John in Old Deer state? Any witnesses (possible relatives) named?
