      "Scotland Marriages, 1561-1910," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XY9Z-N4M : accessed 23 March 2016), John Williss and Ann Sinclair, 22 Jun 1875; citing Leith,Midlothian,Scotland, reference ; FHL microfilm 6,035,516.
      This may or may not be the correct marriage record for John and Ann. The record is for a John Williss and no other instances of this spelling appear in the Scottish records. It's possible that John and Ann were married in England, but I can find no trace.
