Colleen, The Scotland census at Ancestry.com is an index only, but does include name, age, occupation if one is given and birth place, along with the address for the entry. To view the actual page, you would have to do so thru Scotland's People site. Also remember that the online IGI only goes up to 1875, in most cases. Regards, Julie
