I knew I'd thought of another idea while I was out, but when I got home I couldn't remember it! Now at last I remember what it was! This did come in useful for my tree, but like with the marriage, I can't say if it will be any help with yours without using SP credits.

Some Scottish baptism records have the names of witnesses on them, who are often relatives, so it could be that if you view the image of the baptism record for one (or more) of Donald and Janet's children, there might be a relative or two named in there. On the other hand, there might well not be. My Scottish ancestors came from Edinburgh and I found loads of witness names on their baptisms (I still haven't paid up to view all of the records yet! Must do some more some time) but I don't know whether there will be any in Perthshire.
