Claire: I'm fairly sure that "Rispin" should be Rispond, which is not far from Islandhall (Eilan Choraidh), and is/was a fishing station on the North Sea coast where the road turns south to go around Loch Eriboll, a sea Loch. I also think that , because of the same patronymics, Janet was from the same family.
