  Marriage Notes:

No marriage record for this couple has been found.

The text of Margaret Home's baptism record in Clatt parish register in 1809 referred to her as 'lawful' child of her parents. This means her parents were married before her birth. The marriage between Peter Home and Christian therefore did take place.

It may have taken place in an Episcopal church rather than in the Established Church of Scotland, or it may have been a private ceremony, not recorded in the church registers.
