Morning Cassy, A site which may be useful is General Register Office for Scotland. You can find it at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk I gather that it contains a fully searchable database of 50 million names. It includes Births and Marriages from the Old Parish Records from 1553 - 1854. But more importantly for you it contains Civil Registers of Births from 1855 - 1905, Marriages from 1855 -1930 and Deaths from 1855 - 1955. It also contains all census records from 1841 - 1901 and Scottish wills from 1500 - 1901. That is the good news. Unfortunately you have to pay to use this site. It costs £6-00 for 7 days access which includes 30 page credits for copies. I have not used this site myself so I cannot tell you how easy/difficult it is to access. But it was mentioned at a lecture that I attended last Saturday. The Lecturer was very enthusiastic about it. Hope this might be of help.
