Theresa If you look at the Old Parish Register of Dornoch and if the marriage is shown on this then it should at least give you the area from where they came but I must point out that not all marriages are shown on the register. Normally it reads something like: Alexander Murray, Balvraid, married Johan Mackay, Achvaich. This will at least narrow down your search to a more specific area. You can arrange to see these registers through your local LDS Family History Centre.
