I have a list of wills from the Commissariot of Glasgow for Mure or Muir for
the years 1547-1800. They list the maiden names and who they married for
the women and give (usually) place and date. Sometimes the men's listings
will give the wife's name (and by that I mean full maiden name). If anyone
would like me to check this list for any clues I will be glad to. Just
e-mail me directly.
