Sorry my mistake I meant her marriage certificate which was in Kilwinning Ayrshire.

Or register (for free) with Scotfam tree friendly forum. They will do lookups for you for a nominal fee and are really helpful.

As your info seems so limited, I must endorse the advice given above about registering with Scotlands people..........

The best way you will get the info is to register on Scotlands people, you need to pay for credits but it is a nominal fee. Once you have found the info required you can download copies of the certificates.

Is anybody able to look up Mary Durrace , I dont have a dob for her but her daughter Charlotte was born in 1873 so I am estimating 1853. She married a Robert Frew but other than that I have no details and dont know what to try next.I have the marriage certifiacte of charlotte and it says on it father Robert Frew and ms durrace so i am assuming the maiden name is right.

I am also looking for the parents of Michael Quinn dod 1876 , married in Lanarkshire Scotland. The parents are Patrick Quinn and Sarah Mc Alinden but I have no DOB for either

OR
Thomas & Bridget Breen married 16 May 1877.

If you can possibly help with any of these I would be most grateful as I am really stuck on them and cant seem to get any further forward.
