Got ancestors in Moray and the surrounding area? Try http://libindx.moray.gov.uk/mainmenu.asp I've found a few mentions, even a headstone/grave reference! Oops...Brenda already added it...never mind, this is a great site so deserves to be mentioned twice. Mhairi |

I've found the help that I've received on www.talkingscots*com absolutely brilliant. There's also:- www.ayrshire-roots*co*uk which has poor relief records, intimations from the Ardrossan & Saltcoats Herald to name a couple of bits. www.phlomis.plus*com which has a huge list of Aberdeenshire names which have been submitted. Sheena Charles created a fantastic site with MIs for Boyndie, Deskford & Rathven:- http://myweb.tiscali*co*uk/sheena_charles/miarchive*htm Freereg is good for some East Lothian records. www.threetowners*com is great for Ardrossan, Saltcoats & Stevenston information. I also find a good old google with ' ' round the persons name plus a place associated to them, place of birth, marriage or general area almost always comes up with a good result. Happy hunting.
