Please scroll to the bottom for help needed - thank you

I have come to a complete stand still my ggrandfather was John Muirhead who married Jessie McLaren on 16.02.1916 according to their marriage extract his parents were John Muirhead and Jane Newell. I can find no marriage details for them in Scotland, I know through family history they had many children which included 2 sets of twins and a set of triplets, I have no idea of their ages, can't yet trace a birth certificate for my ggrandfather John, he was noted on his marriage extract as 36, 6 years older than his wife when we thought he was 11 years older! If I could find the marriage details for John and Jane think I might be able to get moving again. Haven't been able to pinpoint a census as I don't know ages or areas!

Can anyone help me?
Many thanks Nicola
