My grandfather was Leith Dunnet, born 12 Oct. 1884, and one of his sisters was *Margaret Jane Dunnet who lived in Scarfskerry and I knew her well, but she had no children (her married name was Mowat).
There were four other siblings:
Jemima Isabella Louttit D. born 19 Sept. 1871
William D. born 6th Feb. 1875
George D. born maybe in 1880, and
Barbara D. born maybe in 1886.
Their parents were **George Dunnet born 27th Dec. 1842 and Jane Calder Louttit born 15th Sept. 1848.
**George Dunnet's parents were William Dunnet and Margaret Skinner. The latter was born 5th Jan. 1816 in Ham. William and Margaret were married on the 4th. of Feb. 1842 in Dunnet. Also, I do not know if this **George Dunnet had any siblings.
With the exception of *Margaret Jane, I never met nor can remember hearing anything about any of the other family members mentioned above.
With the exception of Barbara who died in 1946 when I was a year old, all the others shown above had died before I was born.
AND, I do not know if Jemima, William, George or Barbara had any children - so I may be "missing" a whole lot of other uncles, aunts, cousins.
I would be delighted to hear any information anybody may have about any of these Dunnets - either on this forum or by PM.
