Please contact me if you have any informatiuon about Andrew Yorston Laurenson, baptised in Lerwick Shetland in 1833. His brothers were Laurence 1816, Robert 1818, and Alexander 1825 and his sisters were Margaret 1820, Barbara Hay 1823, and Laura 1830. The parents were Gideon Laurenson and Euphemia Harcleson (Herculeson?). I am descended from Robert, who moved to England where the U in the name was subsequently changed to W. Brian Lawrenson
