What is happening with the Orkney List? Is no mail coming through or is no one interested in Orkney Genealogy? I seem to be swamped with Inverness mail and have just noticed no posts from Orkney since the test messages from various people questioning what was happening. Names I am interested in mainly are Smith, Nicolson, Ritch from Hoy. Other minor lines are Sinclair, Anderson, Craigie, Stout, Mellis, Mowatt, Wallace, Ross, Groat, Wilson, Thomson, Walls. Hoping for lots of mail!

There were days when webtv wasn't working and I didn't receive email from several lists. Suddenly you feel all alone, almost lost. I know I look forward to opening up each email, even if it doesn't help me. Have a very Happy Christmas and New Year.
