Dear Marilyn, I guess we have some ancestors in common. William and Catherine, married 14 Nov. 1790, South Ronaldsay, had a son, Edward. He married Isabel Norquoy and they had a daughter, Eliza Peebles Allan. Eliza married John Cogle Budge, my 2xgreatgrandfather. How are you connected to William and Catherine? Out of curiosity, how far back are we cousins?
