The marriage is on FamilySearch - 16 Mar 1813 at Campbeltown, Argyll, James Carnegie and Catherine Scott.

Also they had a daughter Mary Carnegie born 19 Dec 1813 and baptised 24 Dec 1813 at Campbeltown, and a son James Carneggie born 26 Apr 1818 and baptised 27 Apr 1818 at Southend, again taken from FamilySearch.

Scotland's People has a Catherine Carnegie death registered in Campbeltown in 1860 but it seems there is no age stated. "Other surname" doesn't match to Scot or Scott, but I suppose that might not be filled in either.

I'll check her daughter's marriage to the grave robber, John McLean, to see whether her mother is still alive in 1855.

Yes - James is named as a witness on his sister Catherine's marriage to John McLean.

The place they lived in 1841 doesn't seem to exist. However, there is a townland in N Ireland named Crockmorran.

Just viewed the image on Scotland's People. Pleased that for once, there is more than just the name of the bride and groom!

Here is the transcript from the Campbeltown OPR:

'James Carnegie, labourer, Ballemanoch, and Catharine Scott, daughter of the deceased William Scott, late weaver Kirkmichael, both of this parish was married 16 March 1813.'

I can't find a birth / baptism for Catherine on FamilySearch or Scotland's People or anything on William.
