Subject: Donald CAMPBELL + Ann CHISHOLM ? ? ?

Please, can anyone help me resolve my problem? I have a quandary with an ancestral marriage for a Donald CAMPBELL who married Ann CHISHOLM in Scotland.

IGI has an ALEXANDER WILLIAM CAMPBELL born on 6 Mar 1859 in Urray, Ross & Cromarty,Scotland, whose parents are a Donald Campbell & Ann Chisholm.

OUR Alexander William Campbell married an Elizabeth Spears in Birkenhead, England, in 1883, he was born in Scotland per subsequent Census. This is bonafide & proven information that he IS ours. They had 3 sons:
(1) William "Chisholm" Campbell 1884
(2) Alexander Bruce Campbell 1886
(3) Ernest Donald Campbell 1888 [our Grandfather]. All of Ernie's subsequent generation males have "Chisholm" as a middle name, even today! But the family has lost the knowledge of from where it comes. I'm trying to prove that the Donald Campbell + Ann Chisholm marriage is indeed ours!

IGI has 2 records of a marriage for Donald Campbell + Ann Chisholm:

1. DONALD CAMPBELL - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Marriage: 03 DEC 1841 South Leith, Midlothian, Scotland

2. DONALD CAMPBELL - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Marriage: 29 NOV 1841 Saint Cuthberts, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland


QUESTION: could these 2 IGI marriages be the same couple? Is the church, Saint Cuthberts, Edinburgh, in the South Leith Midlothian district?

Can anyone help me; or, advise me?
