Death certificate for George Buchanan(in Australia) states he was married to Margaret McFarlane in 1832 in Black Quarry Church near Glasgow. However I do have another reference that says they were married in Kilmaronock!! Can someone please tell me if there is such a church/place?

Thanks

Kilmaronock is a parish in Dumbartonshire.

See http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/sct/DNB/Kilmaronock/index.html

This is within commuting distance of Glasgow (today).

I can find no references to a Black Quarry Church, or a place called Black Quarry.

Thanks Murray I'll try to get the census information, on the Buchanans.
