Book Description
This is the most practical, the most up-to-date, and the most informative guide to Scottish ancestry ever to come on the market. Packed with information and advice on basic research techniques, it focuses on the holdings of the two principal Scottish record repositories, the General Register Office at New Register House and the Scottish Record Office, both in Edinburgh. With records of births, marriages, and deaths before and after 1855 and census returns from 1841 to 1891 at the first-named location, and wills, testaments, deeds, and church records at the other, the author guides you, record by record, to a successful conclusion of your search. With chapters on other records and repositories, five useful appendices (including one that lists every parish in Scotland by district number, county and commissariat), and various maps, this publication will be welcomed by everyone interested in Scottish genealogy.
