Hi Allen,
In case you haven't come across it since you posted your request there is a fantastic website "bayanne.info/shetland" This has a lot of information. If you search on surname, you will locate your Laurence Laurenson, and then be able to fill in a lot of Shetland family history. The guy who hosts this site, Tony Gott is very helpful
Regards,
Steve Laurenson
