Olave Sinclair of Havera had been banished from Shetland by Earl Robert Stewart. Olave obtained on 19th September 1539, a respite of the slaughter of John, Earl of Caithness, who fell in the fight with the Orkney and Shetland men at Summersdale in Orkney in 1529. He subsequently held the office of Great Fowde of Zetland, and on 17th July 1762, having failed to account to the crown for the mails and rents of the islands, was ordered by the Privy Council to be put to the horn (be banished) if he does not do so within 20 days. He had a charter from Benedict, William and James Erlingson, sons of the late Erling Williamson, of their merks land in Burraland in Trondra for 54 Zetland gudlings (value unit for wares) in fat guidis dated at the Buyth in Dunrossness, 25th October 1567 and disponed to William Sinclair his brother's son the lands of Tegon and others by charter dated at Stirling 5th March 1578. On one occasion when Hutcheon Macleod of the Lewis invaded Shetland, Olave only managed to escape by leaping off Sumburgh Head and when he landed on a piece of grass in a cleft in a rock, he received no further injury than the loss of an eye. Olave entertained James Hepburn, the Earl of Bothwell, when he fled to Shetland in 1567, after the defeat of Queen Mary at Carberry Hill.

On the death certificates of the three Gutschlag boys they list their mother as Christina Vietzens or similar spelling. However after looking at the German records it appears her name was Justine Wilhelmina Vietzens. This was how she was listed on the four christening records I found and her second marriage to Gottfrieds brother.
Family stories tell us that Justine married her brother in law after Gottfried died in 1861. I found her remarriage to Carl August Gutschlag, son of Carl Gutschlag 13 May 1866. The record states that Justine is the widow of roof tiler/thatcher Gottf, Gutschlag. | VIETZENS, Justine Wilhelmina (I1593)
