Hi Rosemary
My GGGGrandfather William Swanson married Janet Stephen 1864. they went to Shetland from bower, he was farm manager for a mr Budge at bigton farm Dunrossness his son George Swanson was born there, they retuned to Caithness about 1858.
William had a brother George baptised 13/4/1799. I would imagine there would be a tie somewhere, too many coincidences.
