Hi Sateah,
No reference to Alexander Trotter. The list only goes up to 1846 so can't help with Jane.

Hello John
This is a wonderful initiative of yours.
I wonder if there are any entries for Robertson/Robson/Robeson? Mainly from Greenland.
John
-
Very interesting posting. Do you have anything on Ranaldon, Randleson or Ronaldson ? Thanks
-
John
Please contact me on my personal e-mail [email protected] as all the Robertsons from Greenland are on my family tree. My great-grandmother was Elizabeth Robertson (1841-1920). We must have a family connection.

Hi Domino,
Three entries for you under Ranaldson
1 Oct 1802 - Alexander [2/- for Bell & Mort Cloth]
20 Mar 1828 - Wife of George, Brough [2/- for Bell & Mort Cloth]
1 Oct 1802 - Wife of John [2/- for Bell & Mort Cloth]

John
Thank you very much for that. Will need to do a bit more research

Hi Domino
The 1836 Traill Estate map shows one croft at Brough occupied by G Ronn. and another croft occupied by Ronaldn. Both probably abbreviations for Ronaldson.

George,
Many years since we last communicated. Peter became a father at long last at age 42! He met his partner Kirsty on the Internet and they have two children, Morgan aged 5 and Lily Grace, aged 2 next month.
As for your Gairs I only have two entries for you: -
12 Nov 1800 - wife of Donald Geir - 2/- for Bell & Mort Cloth
7 Mar 1821 - John Geir - 2/- for Bell & Mort Cloth
John

Anything on Jannet Rosie who died in 1834 in Barrock I would think.
married to John Shearer
Mamie

Mamie,
You are in luck. She is entered simply as wife of John Shearer, Barrock. The payment of 2/- to cover the cost of a mortcloth and the ringing of the bell was recorded on 26 May 1834.
John
-
Thanks very much John. I and a couple of others will be pleased with additonal information.
Now do you have anything on James Campbell, lived in Brough, married to Ann Mckay died after 1825 and before 1841 I would think.
Mamie
-
Mamie,
You are on a roll. There is an entry in the Kirk Session Accounts for James Campbell dated 4th September 1839 for 2/- for a mortcloth and having the bell rung.
John

thanks again John
Have to get lucky sometimes.

STEVEN/STIVIN/STEPHEN burials in Nether GreenLand
Hello
I am researching our family which we have traced to 1797 and a John Steven, recorded in his baptism registration in church as John Stivin, son of Magnus Steven), born about 1797 in Dunnet, Caithness. do you have any Steven/Stivin or Stephen burials recorded for Dunnet - if so I would be very interested in finding out more about Magnus Steven, from Nether GreenLand, who was baptized on the 22 March, 1761. His father was recorded as a John Stivin/Stephen. I think John was born about 1738, and married Elizabeth Dunnet. Thank you so much,
Ruth.(Missouri, USA)
