Post by: peedielass on Sunday 12 February 12 18:56 GMT (UK): I have just discovered a link in my tree to Saunders family of Kirkwall. Ann Saunders, daughter of James Saunders and Margaret Bews married David Flett in 1794. The marriage was in Kirkwall but it appears that their children were born in Firth. It is an unusual name for Orkney so presume we must be connected somehow. Glad to share what little info I have.
