I did a little digging and came up with a thread you may want to look into. I know you stated your family was from England, but this may be their origin? (Hope it helps - good luck)Longman & Castle Stuart Bays in Northern Scotland. This area (Inverness) has been under an archeology dig.
Here is a contact that may shed some light on your questions:
Highland Council Archaeology Unit, Planning and Development, Council HQ,
Glenurquhart Road, Inverness IV3 5NX
eMail: Archaeology@highland.gov.uk
fax: +44 (0)1463 702298
I would first ask if there were any castles or fortifications in the Longman Bay area then if so, ask where you can find some information for a research project. Let them know you are looking into your heritage and need this information for that purpose. Also, if you go to college, see if you can couple your research with an assignment and let them know you are requesting this info for a class research assignment as well.
