Hi Fiona- I have a copy & will contact you regarding Jeff Burgher who wrote the book- a family /social history . Well done I might add- my Westray Burgars & Thomsons are there- my 4x grgrmother is listed on page 53 : "ELIZABETH BURGAR, 5th child of JOHN BURGAR and CHRISTIAN HARCUS . chr. 12th April, 1783. Nothing more is known of Elizabeth." Thanks to Jeff's hard work -and 2 early 19th C letters sent to Nova Scotia from Westray- the connection was made. Jeff also publishes a Burgher Family Newsletter. Will do lookups...the book has an index. cheers Thompson in PEI ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, December 03, 2005 6:57 PM Subject: [Orkney] Burghers o' Westray > can anyone tell me where I could get a copy of the Burghers o' Westray? > Fiona > > > ==== ORKNEY Mailing List ==== >>>>>TIP: To unsubscribe, send an e-mail message to: >>>>>[email protected] In the body include only one word: >>>>>unsubscribe > Use Orkney-D if you're receiving digests.<<<< > > ============================== > Jumpstart your genealogy with OneWorldTree.
