University of Strathclyde's Bannockburn project

From the University of Strathclyde's postgraduate programme in genealogical studies (www.strath.ac.uk/genealogy/)

The University of Strathclyde Postgraduate Programme in Genealogical, Palaeographic and Heraldic Studies has officially announced that it is running a Bannockburn Project to mark the 700th anniversary of the Battle of Bannockburn in 2014. This will throw light on the participants in the Battle from a genealogical point of view and will culminate in an exhibition featuring work by current Diploma level students, hosted by the National Trust for Scotland, in their new Bannockburn Visitor Centre, from Saturday 21 June to Saturday 2 August 2014. The Project also has an exciting genetic genealogy component.

For more details see the Project website at www.strath.ac.uk/genealogy/bannockburn/.
