You are a fantastic help. thank you very much. Have looked at the Orkney FH site and downloaded some files from walt Custer's site but they will take some perusing so I will get back to you. in the meantime I will look at the Cursitor site

Had a look but cant find what I was looking at last night, but I have had a look at the 1841 census for Walls & Flotta and it has Peter Johnston aged 85 fisherman, Saltness, Walls and Elspet Johnston aged 75 so that would make her birth date around 1766 and his around 1756
