For every ancestral sibling that married, have you determined who the witnesses were at that wedding? Their names could be as big of a potential clue as any other witness. Those witnesses could be family members (either by blood or by marriage), friends of the family, co-workers, neighbors, etc.

Or they could just be two warm bodies of legal age in the same location and have no relationship to your family at all.

But it does not hurt to look.
