Looks like three proclamations 31 Aug, 14 Sep, 21 Sep 1766. And the “booked” date of 10 Sep 1776. In my experience the marriage often took place at the same time as the third proclamation.

Thank you Ron, I have posted this query on RootsChat, but I would be grateful for anyone to provide an answer. Further examination of the Madderty record does show the couple mentioned twice about 2 weeks apart, and then another slightly ambigous entry a week later again As such the four entries in total read in order of appearance: Madderty - 1766 Aug 31 Robert Marshall in this parish and Elizabeth Lawson of Gask parish were proclaimed pro 1mo Findo Gask - 1766 Sept 10 Robert Marshall in the Parish of Maddarty and Elizabeth Lawson in this Parish were booked in Order to Marriage and as usual gave to the Poor Madderty - 1766 Sept 14 Robert Marshal and Elizabeth Lawson proclaimed per a? Madderty - 1766 Sept 21 The foregoing persons were proclaimed pro 3rd On 21 October 2013 18:45, Ron Ferguson <[email protected]> wrote: Kathy, I am not sufficiently familiar with Scottish records to answer the question.
