Have you looked at the links provided by Dundee10 at #8? To me they look good, what are your thoughts? As Dundee pointed out the Eliza in your ancestry was baptised in High Church, Glasgow, Lanark in 1857, the Eliza you are following was born in Wiston, Lanarkshire abt 1857 and is the daughter of John E Thompson and Mary (not Maria) Clark
That's thrown a spanner in the works as the William son of John and Maria in workington, Cumberland was born about 1853, however age at death isn't always correct as it depends how well the informant knew the deceased.Alma

The informant knows William well enough to record given name and family name for William's mother and father. That should encourage you to believe that there would be good information on this death record.
What is on the THOMPSON-JOHNSTON marriage document.
What church do they marry in?
Who are the witnesses?
How does Eliza name her father....(dec)?....what occupation for her father?

The marriage certificate is on Kate's Ancestry tree.
Eliza Thompson and Peter Johnston married in the register office district of Tynemouth
The witnesses are John and Sarah Mary Moon
Eliza's father is entered as John Thompson a mason
I think the witnesses are Peter's sister and her husband
Marriages Mar 1867, Cockermouth Cumberland, 10b 643.
Sarah Johnston and John Moon on the same pageAlma

I’m a bit confused. So Eliza’s death cert states she was born in Glasgow to John Thompson (a mason) and Maria Duff (84yrs old when she died).
The birth record I have is off the Scotland’s People website ref 644/2. If this is not her birth, any ideas on her birth record please? Thankyou for all the help.
