I am a Leask reseacher and I have two queries:
1.Does anyone know the parents of Henry Leask b.1788 who married 15.1.1813 at Kirkwall, Janet Linnay. Their so was Capt Henry Leask of the Hudson Bay Company who married Catherine Searette in Canada
2.I do not have any specific Parish records of the family in Papa Westray but I am looking for descendants or any information of Thomas Leask 1532-1544 m. Agnes Synclar whose heir was Boniface Leask b.27.6.1532.
Thomas was the grandson of Thomas Leask (2nd) of that Ilk circa 1390 and son of Jamis of Lask or James de Cragy who settled in the Orkney's and Margaret St Clair dau. of Prince Henry St Clair, Earl of Orkney (Norse Earldom)
It would be a great help with research if anyone has any clues!
I lokk forward to any replies
