June, I believe that the marriage record is listed as Donald McKENZIE and Maggie WELLS on 10 May 1879 in Dumfries, Dumfriesshire, page 25, line 50 (and Register of Corrected Entries, Vol 2, page 17, dated 8 Jun 1882, where it records the actual date as 10 JUNE 1879 at St. Michael's Manse). The residence of both groom and bride was listed as Georgetown, Dumfries. (I am not familiar with Gaston, Dumfries.) His parents are recorded as Andrew McKENZIE, General Labourer, and Christina McKenzie, M.S. ROSS (deceased). Her parents are recorded as William WELLS, General Labourer (deceased), and Jane Wells, M.S. BROWN (deceased). NB: Daughter Christina was born on 22 Feb 1882 in Dumfries, even though the 1891 Scotland Census referred to in previous responses lists her age as 11. Good luck in your search.

Looking for my great grandparent's marriage record. Their first child was born in 1880 in Gaston, Dumfries, Dumfriesshire, Scotland so that is my starting point to find out their marriage and to verify that I have the correct maiden name of my great grandmother. If possible there is someone that could look this marriage up or tell me how I can I would be very thankful. 1879/80 Marriage in Gaston, Dumfries, Scotland Donald McKENZIE birth 1856 (?)
