Another thought Tiff...do you have the children for Baikie and James?

Sometimes possibilities suggest themselves through the naming

of the children :)

Baikie, I'm almost certain, was a surname in Orkney. There is always the possibility

that Baikie was the mother's maiden name or the Grandmother's name. I'm just

brainstorming here ;D
