Cathy, I don't know about your Oman Budge, but I know a lady in Kirkwall, who will know if anyone does. She doesn't have a computer but I have her address and telephone number. She and her husband Jimmy are very nice people and she has been keeping family records a great many years. She is a Thomson and connected to the Budge family.

Blake; I am going to capitalize on your message regarding your lady in Kirkwall since I do a lot of my research in South Ronaldsay as well. The older folk have good memories.
