	Island Explorations - Eday
		There is a wealth of evidence of man’s presence on this island over many thousands of years from the mysterious Standing Stone of Setter, often compared to a giant’s hand and probably the finest stone of its type in Orkney, to 17th century Carrick House and the dwellings of today’s farmers and crofters.
		Eday is made up of red and yellow rocks of the Middle Old Red Sandstone, the sandstone magnificently displayed in the cliffs of the Red Head.
		The island of Eday and Carrick House are associated with the capture of one of Orkney’s most notorious sons, John Gow the Pirate.

	The Papar Project : Orkney - Papley, Eday
		Eday is the least fertile of the northern isles - it was noted as a supplier of peat and of part of the sandstone utilised to build St. Magnus’s cathedral (Brand 1701, 55; Low 1778, 140).
		Eday’s church - the Lady Kirk at Skaill - seems to have been rebuilt in 1730, but was ruinous by 1779; when described in the 1790s, ‘it had not a pane of glass in any of its windows in the memory of any man living’ (Anderson 1794, 424) and was rebuilt again in 1858.
		Anderson’s implication that the minister would not travel to Eday, unless the church was repaired, is confirmed to some extent by the later Statistical Account, when the minister was only visiting the island on every fourth Sunday (Simpson 1841, 166).

		While John Gray was born in Westray, he was living in Eday by the time of the first census in 1841.
		This would have his birth as in 1845 and ties nicely with the 1851 Eday census information in which he is at Cocklehouse in Eday with his father and possibly his mother.
		While there are a number of Janet Reids in Eday, it appears that she may have died before the introduction of the statutory registration of births, marriages and deaths in Scotland in 1855.
