Try the Bayanne Shetland genealogy web site. It has reams of information about Shetland folk.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Unfortunately most of the early baptism records in Shetland only record the father's name
