I have his marriage and place of death, thanks.  :)

Seatter is a fairly common name on Westray (which is one of the northern isles of Orkney).  There are also Seatters in the current phone book (its the Aberdeen, Orkney and Shetland volume) in other places of Orkney (including Sanday, South Ronaldsay, Longhope, etc)  Can you give some more information about your William?  Dates of birth and death might help (or approximate dates) and names of parents etc.  The Orkney Library in Kirkwall has a lot of genealogical information if you can narrow things down a bit.  ALso, many areas of Orkney have local Heritage Centres which are kind of like local history archives, but you'd need to know which area or island you wanted first.

William Traill Seatter, b  1827, parents maybe William S and Lydia Ann Fleet.
William T Seatter married 1858, died 1890.

Farmed 257 acres at Saviskail. 

It was more a general thing aimed at people on Orkney or from Orkney.

Thanks
