I have to mention what a excellent site this is, well worth the money. why can't they have a site like this for the England and Wales where you can actually view the birth, marriage or death certificate. For just 6 pounds I have traced back so far, that I have got myself in a muddle with all the names. Think i may pay another 6 pounds to look at the census forms now. EXCELLENT SITE.......try it if you have Scottish Ancestors

Researching:
Ashford-Smith, Smith, Clarke - England and Scotland, Anderson & Marr - Midlothian & East Lothian, Bennett - Devonport, Catleugh & Shiells - East Lothian, Cullen & Dowling - Waterford, Ireland, Littlejohns - Plymouth & London, Mansfield - Benfleet & St Pancras, Michelin - London, Newlands - Midlothian & Fife, Paterson - Canongate, Midlothian, Paulin - Northumberland, Rutherford - Roxburghshire, Taylor - East Lothian & Berwickshire, Thomson - Leith & Muthill, Thorney - Herefordshire, Small - Northumberland,

Hi Siobhan/Girls, I'm sure that the UK bit was a wee typo , I'm sure you meant England as we Scots are part of the UK LOL :o)) Glad you have enjoyed SP. Within a few days of starting my tree in May I was back to late 1700's. I thought this FT business was a piece of cake - until you have to look out side Scotland! I couldn't understand why the English/Welsh sites were so different and that you all have to spent sooo much for one certificate. Have fun. Regards Margaret
