Did Laurence marry and / or die in Scotland, Sam, and if so, when?

I was hoping that Laurence married or died in Scotland after the start of civil registration, Shona, to get confirmation of his father's name from the registration. But even though it looks as if he married before civil registration, it's possible that the marriage entry might give his father's name, isn't it?
Edit - or did he marry in England, in which case the marriage cert should give father's name?

Aha, the marriage is on FamilySearch:
Laurence Brodie married Elizabeth Moore 27 Jan 1851 at Cross-Canonby, Cumberland, and it gives their fathers' names on there - Robert Brodie and William Moore.

If you haven't looked up Robert's death certificate yet, Sam, on Scotland's People there is a Robert Brodie death in the Statutory Deaths, 1863, Dysart, Fife, age 70, mother's maiden surname Ritchie. (I didn't view the image, just did a free search. The image would give you more information than this.)

That should be Robert as it ties in with info on one of the burials of the still-born children.
8 March 1822, still-born child of Robert Brodie, sailor and feur, Dunnikier, Dysart. Grandchild of Marey Ritchy, dcsd

Hmmm - the death of Robert on SP (son of Mary Ritchie) and the burial of the child (child of Robert and grandchild of Marey Ritchy) means that this Robert is not the Robert who was the son of John Brodie and Isobel Smart (born 25 July 1798 in Dysart and baptised on 5 August).
