Hi Pixieo5
The OPRs are now online on Scotlands People. Have you tried a birth search for him in Tain, Ross and Cromarty? Tain is in Easter Ross, just north across the Cromarty Firth from the Black Isle, so it may well be that they originally came from there.

Best wishes
Lesley

thanks lesley i have tried the opr but it is not finding him a lady from Uhta told me she had found an entry for him in the parish reg of Tain but i cannot find it at all its doing my head in,to get so far then nothing arrrrrrrrrggggghh
i have tried years before the entry and years after even used soundex .he must be there somewhere. His parents were not married in1780 i know who he married but no image is available so you cannot see his fathers name or mothers name :?
things your ancestors did it the past will be revistited again and again (spooky or what?)
