Is anyone connected or know more of the following people please.

Have an Anne SCOTT fron Dishes, Stronsay, Orkney who married John PEACE of Stronsay
on 16 Apr 1812 Stronsay
also.
Their children were:
David PEACE chr: UNKNOWN
John PEACE chr. 30 Oct 1814
Barbara PEACE chr: 18 May 1817
Elspet PEACE chr: 30 Jun 1820
William PEACE chr: 31 Aug 1823
Margaret PEACE chr: 03 Sept 1826

Anne PEACE (MS SCOTT) parents were apparently William SCOTT - farmer and Barbara CRAIGIE,
Parish of Sanday (Lady Cross & Burness)

Their children (I know of) were born Sanday
Jannet bap: 4 Nov 1777 (b: 3 Nov)
Margaret bap: 09 Jul 1779 (b: 5 July 1779)
John bap: 24 Feb 1782 (b: 15 Feb)

Would like to find out as much as I can re Anne's parents William SCOTT and Barbara CRAIGIE.

Thank you,
DiMac

Dear DiMac

I did a Google search for Stronsay and Dishes and one of the links that came up was on Roots for "Tiffaney" - if that is not you, then it might be worth your while getting in touch!!

Here's the quote from Roots:-

"Arriving at Kirkwall recently I have discovered Scotts are amongst my ancestors on the Orkney Islands. My Anne Scott married a Peace (John??) on Stronsay. She may have come from another Island close by. This would be in 1800's. Am hoping one of our members may be connected to the Scott families so I can make some headway."

It would be nice if you are not Tiffaney ...

Hello Liz,
you are very kind thinking of my Scotts etc & posting same here for which I am
most appreciative.
You have hit the nail on the head..I also use Tiffaney as my username on some forums.

Many thanks,
DiMac

Oh well - it was worth a try ...

I have not done much of my own research over the past year or so and am just back browsing around TS to catch up.

I hope you get some progress on this soon - it is always worth while coming back to your posts here and updating with any progress you've made. We like to hear of successes - however small or long they take!

All the best.

Thank you Liz,

Yes it indeed worth a try, and the fact that you took an interest in my posts is worth
a great deal in itself.
I will certainly let you know if I have any breakthru's.
Enjoy getting back into fam. research again and all the very best to you also.

My regards,
DiMac
