Hello - I'm interested in your HEDDLE & SHEARER connections. My
greatgrandmother was Mary Heddle Cockburn (daughter of John Heddle and Mary
Shearer Stickler). She was born Nov 29 1870 in St. Ola. My Shearers
originated from Sanday and Marwick, Birsay and also Dunnet, Caithness and my
Heddles from St Andrews and Shapinshay Orkney. Let me know if any of this
sounds familiar. Karen Acker, Burlington, ON Canada
