Anne, can you post up the bit of the marriage certificate giving Isabella's maiden name please, so we can have a go at trying to decipher it? Also, have you found William and Mary Ann on the 1911 Scottish census? And doesn't his marriage certificate and / or son's birth certificate give his occupation? Also, who are the witnesses on the marriage certificate?
