A possible:

Bpt: 15 March 1752, Sanday - Barbara Criagie d/o William Craigie and Jannet Tulloch


Others:

6 April 1754, St Andrews (Orkney) d/o William Craigie and Jean Meason

30 October 1754, Deerness d/o Jerome Craigie or Cray and Barbara Thomson

Two possibles for William Scott ~

Both Sanday

6 May 1759 s/o Thomas Scott and Jean Scott

27 Jult 1760 s/o James Scott and Margaret Skea


Please note that these (including Barbara Craigie) are only possibles - the most likely given their place of baptism.
