      Name of Child: Agnes Davis McIloney
      When and Where Born: 1904 March 28th at 8h 15m p.m. at 34 New Street, Stevenston
      Sex: Female
      Name, Surname and rank or prefession of Father: Robert Carson McIloney, joiner
      Name and Maiden Surname of Mother: Mary McIloney m.s. Logan
      Date and Place of Marriage: 1901 December 31st, Blackfriars District, Glasgow.
      Signature and Qualification of Informant, and Residence, if out of the House in which the Birth occurred: Robert C. McIloney, father.

      When and Where Registered, and Signature of Registrar: 1904 April 8th, at Stevenston, J. McKenzie, Assistant Registrar, [initialled] A.W.D[onaldson]., Regr. [Registrar]
      Note that certificate shows surname recorded as M'Iloney, the apostrophe being used in place of the lowercase letter 'c'. Robert's signature, however, was completed with the lowercase letter 'c' following the initial 'M' of the surname, thusly McIloney. It appears that the surname was recorded by the Assistant Registrar in this fashion as a matter of course as the immediately following birth entry is for one John M'Kechan whereupon the father signed the registration as David McKechan.

    2. [S128] District Registration of Marriages, Scotland, (Edinburgh, Scotland: Registrar General for Scotland), District of Blackfriars, Burgh of Glasgow, Lanarkshire,1902 - 644/05-0255, 1 Dec 1902.
      Entry No. 255:
      1902 on the first day of December at 269 High Street, Glasgow by Declaration in presence of ROBERT LOGAN, Tailor, and ANNIE CARSON McALONEY, Mercantile Clerk.
      Groom: Robert McAloney (signed), joiner journeyman, bachelor, aged 28 years, usual residence 319 Parliamentary Road, Glasgow, parents James McAloney cab proprietor and Mary McAloney m[aiden] s[urname] Carson.
      Bride: Mary Logan (signed), spinster, aged 28 years, usual residence 319 Parliamentary Road, Glasgow, parents Alexander Logan formerly a stevedore and Mary Logan m.s. Ross.
      If a regular Marriage, Signatures of officiating Minister and Witnesses. If irregular, Date of Conviction, Decree of Declarator, or Sheriff's Warrant: Warrant of Sheriff substituted of Lanarkshire dated 1st December 1902.
      When and Where Registered and signature of Registrar: 1902 December 1st, at Glasgow by James B. McLaren, Registrar
      Interesting that this marriage was sanctified by way of an irregular marriage ceremony. Under the law of Scotland, the union of the couple was considered a legitimate marriage, yet the ceremony, itself, remained an unlawful act. Accordingly, the parties to an irregular marriage were liable to be prosecuted as soon as the Sheriff was able to serve them with a Warrant. It would appear from this marriage certificate that the Sheriff's Warrant was served almost immediately upon completion of the ceremony. To learn what penalties were imposed upon Robert and his bride further research would have to be carried out in the Sheriff's records in the archives at Edinburgh and the Sheriff's Court offices in Glasgow, Scotland.
