Your George may be the son of John Bruce and Catherine McKenzie born Feb 27 1827 in Wick.

John is from Dunnet and Catherine from Canisbay.

Hi Maimie 2,
Thanks for your reply.
Found the following:
George's parents were David Bruce and Catherine Sutherland. David was born in Latheron. He is in the 1871 census in Halkirk ,a widower, living with George and his family.
George was born in Halkirk as was his wife Elizabeth Macgregor.
