Can I just say for those that already know sorry for repeating something familiar.
However, found out that the Hudson Bay Company have archived (in pdf format) the details of personnel that worked for them in the past. So if you can't find a rellie, especially from Orkney try this link
Hudson's Bay Company Archives - Biographical Sheets
http://www.gov.mb.ca/chc/archives/hbca/biographical/index.html
There is also a bit about the HBC and Stromness connection on this link
