« on: Friday 12 July 13 07:06 BST (UK)  »
ENGLAND
I have Stella Sorlie b 1801,(only child?) Essex
her father Capt Sholto Douglas Sorlie. (is definite)
Was he son of James and Mary Ferguson m:1770?
and married twice 1. Mary/Margaret Bellwood,1796. In Yarms?. She dies 1809?
                           2.. Mary Yates, 1812. In Wakefield

 there is also a Corporal & Leiut S.D. Sorlie perhaps the same person. Scottish men did fight for GB in wars with Napolean c18th-C19th

SCOTLAND
 James Sorlie marries Mary Ferguson. 1747? 1776?
                  Parents of the Capt Sholto Douglas Sorlie (as above)?

NORWAY  Sorlie is a Norwegian name. see Scottish Norwegian Soc.

I hope this might help
Although past posts don't mention the names I am, we find a link

Cheers, Di

So! It is the Sholto Douglas line I am trying to find back to C16th
