Hi Di!

Are you stalking me?

Flett

I've got a couple of them (remote through marriage).

Flett, as I'm sure you know, is an Orkney name.

Have you been in touch with prophetess on this site?  She has Fletts.

I can connect you if needed.

Hi Dave...it appears so!!!  Also thanks for your info.

Hi Sybil,

Yes remember re: Scotts.  Yes we do have Scott, Craigie, Shearer, Flett, & believe Miel & Linklatter...also other main ones of mine are Peace, Laughton, Tulloch,Sinclair.  Most from Stronsay & it appears Sanday, Orkney altho' some Shearer reles live in Kirkwall now.

Other such as Drever, Miller ,Fotheringham Twatt, Maxwell etc are also connected.

A good friend of mine has just formed a Stronsay Kinfolk forum which I'm very excited about, as I'm sure those whose ancestors came from Stronsay will certainly get some breakthru's, espec. as it grows.
Will send you both a p/m.

Interesting you have Fletts in NZ.  Mine are the Shearers.

Many thanks,
Tiffaney.

Hi Tiffaney
 Elizabeth Flett was my great great Grandmother so I have most of her descendants. They had 3 children, Elizabeth,1849 Peter 1851 (he was my great grandfather) and Georgina 1853. After Elizabeth died in 1853, my gggrandfather re married Barbara Cock- they had one surviving child Mary Ann.
Let me know how much detail you need- she has a lot of descendants!
Have you found out any more about Elizabeth Flett, I don't have her parents or siblings.
 Cheers
Wilma (*)

Thanks for that, every bit helps.

From the info I already have George Shearer 1797-1865 and Helen Miller 1799 were Peter's  1822-1902 parents

Children of George and Helen
Peter 1822-1902
James 1824-1899
George 1827-1850
Isabella 1837
John 1843- no more info- must be the 8 year old son in the census

So... I have Elizabeth Flett born in 1825 in Kirkwall if she was being truthful about being 26 at the census in 1851,
although family info has given me 1818 as her year of birth.
Can anyone else help?
