Hi again, according to the website your Elspet was born 1773 Wals & Flotta and married 1769. Have you looked at the cursiter website?

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

Do you have any other Elspeth Sutherlands? I have an Elspet Sutherland, possibly born at Flaws around 1768.
She married William Waals (aka Walls) in 1797 on South Ronaldsay island and they had 3 kids - daughter elizabeth walls (born and died 1797) son Sutherland Walls born 1802 and another daughter named Elizabeth Walls born 1805 - all born on South Ronaldsay.
I have no information in elspet sutherland or william walls - would you have any info?
