Lewis proper belonged to Ross and Cromarty/ Ross-shire. Harris belonged to Inverness-shire.

I could try and help if you need something easy!! 

Although, I found with my Lewis side that Scotlands records were useful and was amazed what can be found on google (other internet browsers are available!!!) as one whole branch of my tree had already been researched.   This is useful when you are dealing with so many people who have the same name (common occurance in Lewis)
