What other family history societies are there in Scotland?
These are listed on the Links page.
Can you help me with a problem I am having with my research?
As the committee members are all volunteers, it would lessen our workload if you could address your specific research queries to the mailing list (you will have to join this first if you have not already done so). This also opens up your query to a wider group of people and therefore means there is more likelihood of someone knowing the answer.
How do I submit a link for your links page?
Email Emma Reid who will look at your site and decide whether to add it to the links page.
Do you mind if I link to your page?
We would be quite happy for you to link to our page. You can do so without asking us for permission. We wish to make our site available to as wide an audience as possible.
