This could be Donald Bain, born 1841 in Dunnet, Caithness, and his wife Barbara Dearness. They married in Westray in 1860 where they lived until they moved to Racine, Wisconsin, USA, in 1903 to spend their declining years with their children. Donald died just six weeks after they arrived in Racine and Barbara died in 1907.
