Re: illigitmacy
It should be noted that, in Scotland, a child born illegitimately became legitimate upon the subsequent marriage of its parents. Post 1855 this would be recorded as an RCA in the Register of Births.

Re: illigitmacy
Other terms for illegitimacy were 'base born', 'natural born' or 'bastard'. It was always noted in the register one way or another.

Re: handfasting
No, handfasting is not a myth - it was a Celtic custom done in front of witnesses. Cheaper than a church ceremony.

Re: illigitmacy
Am not sure about this, but was told by a Scottish lady that “hand fasting” was popular in Scotland. Apparently that is two people could say they were married (unsure if witnesses were required)
