Hello. I've hit the wall on this particular line of my family tree, and as they all were from Caithness, I thought I might see if anyone here can help. As I live in the United States I have no direct access to any of the records, but I have been able to speak with relatives in England and have made use of ScotlandsPeople and Ancestry.
Several have told me I should be fortunate to have gotten as far as I did, but nevertheless I thought perhaps one of you might know more, or recommend where I might go for more.
