Betsy, forgive me if I've asked you this before... but what Longhope, Walls, surnames are you researching? I have, connected to a branch of my So. Ronaldsay line, a daughter [Barbara MATCHES] of Charles MATCHES and his wife, Jane SINCLAIR; -- in 1873, Barbara MATCHES married a John ANDERSON of Walls [he was a son of James ANDERSON & Margory HEDDLE]. I know of at least three of Barbara and John's children: Jean/Jane ANDERSON, Mary Heddle ANDERSON, and James Matches ANDERSON. Mary Heddle ANDERSON married William CLOAD; Jean/Jane ANDERSON married Thomas KIRKPATRICK; James Matches ANDERSON married Mary Ellen Kennedy CORMACK. -------------------------------------------------- Betsy VanAuker wrote: > ...

Lisa, I am searching for the names Heddle, Sutherland, Wilson, Thomspon from Longhope, Walls and Logie, Bews, Mowat, Flett and Paplay from other parts of Orkney.
