Laura: Are there no Ulsterscots out there ? I do everything you are talking about FREE, its all in my computer and a lot of it is on back up disc's, plus paper such as deeds, wills etc. Year ago I made a deal with a small museum and they have copies of most everything including 150 old books and papers that I have given them over the years. I am currently looking for 1800's Crooks cousins in Washington County, but only the FREE way !
