Hi Everyone, Thought some may be interested in the following: A GOOD DEAL FOR SCOTLANDS PEOPLE Last month, the Scottish family records Web site Scotland's People (http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk teamed up with the National Archives of Scotland ( http://www.scottishdocuments.com) and the Court of the Lord Lyon (http://www.lyon-court.com) to add millions of records to what's already available on Scotlands People. (The Court of Lord Lyon, Scotland's heraldic authority, maintains the Scottish Public Registers of Arms and Genealogies.) Scotlands People is the genealogy data site of the General Records Office for Scotland. The site, which currently contains nearly 40 million records and has 215,000 registered users, will get the Scottish archives' historical wills and testaments, as well as armorial and genealogical material from the Court of Lord Lyon. It's scheduled for launch in spring 2005 as a new, rebranded site. The three organizations also are collaborating on a Scottish Family History research facility near the General Register House and the New Register House buildings in Edinburgh. It's slated to open by the end of 2006. *** Reprinted with permission from Family Tree Magazine Email Update, copyright 2005 F+W Publications Inc.
