I am looking for Magnus Cheyne of any of his parents or siblings. They were all born in Dunrossness, Shetland, Scotland. Any help would be appreciated however small it may be. I live in New Zealand, so it is not just a case of hopping over to Dunrossness to try to do any research, although we are hoping to go over there next year. Roy Horwell
