Hi Katrina, I do have Mathers, Mackays, and Sutherlands (from Durness area) in my tree or, more accurately, in Angi Lamb's tree: however, the first names and the dates of birth are different. When I can get back on to the IGI, I will check for siblings. Angi, do you have anything more?

Difficult to say with McKays making up 25% of the population and Sutherlands 10% in Durness. Don't have any of the later ones in my database.
