Another good one Trinkie - I wonder could the Smith be a link to William Smith the Boys Brigade founder. I know he was born in Thurso but it could be a County honour.
The Dunbar possibly after the Duff Dunbars?
Nicolson could be after John Nicolson of Canisbay who was a collector of Caithness antiquities.
Once again born in Thurso, William Miller was a Free Church missionary of many honours, who was apparently, (quote) was one of the most inspiring men the county has ever produced.
I maybe quite wrong but it's fun to try.
