"May 29th 1791
Simpson Andrew labourer in this Parish and Violet Farmer in this Parish also were Married irregularly in Edin^h. according to their Certificate of Marriage the 24^th March 1791"

Note:

The couple's marriage was recorded in the Gladsmuir parish register on 29 May 1791, but the marriage itself took place in Edinburgh on 24 March 1791. "Irregularly" means outside of the Established Church of Scotland, that is to say it was either a non-conformist marriage ceremony or another form of marriage legally accepted in Scotland where the couple expressed mutual consent to marry each other. ¹

Andrew next married Elizabeth PAXTON on 13 November 1802 in Gladsmuir parish, East Lothian, Scotland.¹ (Elizabeth PAXTON was born about 1775.)
