Could someone with access to the above please look for births to parents Henry McCuskey ( McCluskey ) and Ellen nee Butter ( Butler )

The first birth I have for them is Isabella b c 1830 and the last is Henry 1847.
Just wondering if there was any births before 1830 .
Any help would be much appreciated, thank you

Children i have already are, Isabella 1830 Margaret 1833 James 1836 John 1840
Felix 1841 Elizabeth 1844 Ellen 1846 and Henry 1847.
Taken from 1861 scottish census with surname shown as McCleskey.
