Could just be completely unconnected, but there is a marriage 14 Dec 1850 at Dunfermline, Fife, between Catharine Clark and William Wilson.

Interesting, Kite.

The death cert doesn't give much info actually. Both Catherine and Robert were found dead in their house. The post mortem seemed to be inconclusive as both had been ill previously. It seemed to be put down to a case of 'both were ill, one died, other one followed'. Quite sad....
