I'll 'attend' to the data you sent Gadget as soon as Virginmedia get our email service up and running again, which they hope to do by, they say, "1a.m." Trouble is, which day???
I opened the PM you sent, got half of it read then lost connection. All my other links to webpages and the Internet are fine but it seems they're having "difficulties" with all the blueyonder and virginmedia email servers.
Typical; the system develops a fault on the night most folks will have the opportunity to use it.

Seems as though they might be overloaded Jake, or possibly playing with the system (upgrading it) I'm with Virgin, and no problems here (Bournemouth) this weekend,yet, though it is generally this time of week when there are.

Yep, I think they may have problems in the Glasgow postcode area too from what I read last night, though we're OK again here. I tried a few times up until almost 4am (doing some research for my book and got carried away. Again!) but it was still not connection to the email server, though all my other websites were accessible.
The Ivol name is proving intruiging, sometimes spelt as Ivel, and I can't find a source for it, though the north east of Scotland seems to have a few of them so I wondered if there may have been a Norse connection, though I'd have though there would have been nore in the Shetlands if that were the case.

Hi Jake  Smiley

I'm further North than you now but my connection is very slow! 

I didn't get any further than Alexander son of John b. Duffus in 1814.  How far have you gone?

I've not gone any further back as yet, due in part to this bloomin' Virginmedia which is now running so slow my SP webpage is timing out! Needless to say I'm chatting to the technical department, in India I suspect, and would be quicker writing to them the wait is so long!!
I should have stuck with AOL!!

Got my laptop out as my PC is doing 6002 updates at the moment and has ground to a halt  Roll Eyes

Don't see a marriage for John and Elspet on SP, although there's a  patron submission on the IGI but I've ound them on the 1841:

Dunbar St, Burghead, Duffus
131 ED 6 P 6

Ivel
John 50, flesher
Elpet, 50
Robert, 10
Margaret, 5

All born County

So John and Elspet would be born 1797-1791 if their ages were rounded down.

The IGI (extracted) show the following children for them:



4 June 1812 - John
22Mar 1814 - Alexander
10 May 1816 - William
4 Sept 1818 -  James


There are patron submissions for  a John, Archibald, Robert, Francis and Margaret but these are all patron submissions and much later than the earlier birth/bpts. and would need checking on SP

Robert and Margaret are with them on the 1841 but no relationships so they could be grandchildren  Undecided

It's worth following them up  on the 1851 if you can.

Jake, I had that problem about 4 weeks ago, I found that if I went onto to their technical help at 8am the people manning it were English, but after 1pm Indian, and I couldn't understand a word they said. The 8am shift fixed it though.

I need to try that I think, as I'm getting nowhere after four and a half hours.
