Addressing the questions of DNA, palaeography and the vexed issues of Clans, Families and tartans, Bruce Durie presents a fascinating insight into discovering Scottish ancestors. He covers both physical and electronic sources, and explains how to get beyond the standard births, marriages and deaths plus census research, reminding the reader that there are more tools than just the internet, and not everything written down is correct! |
