Discover Scottish Church Records 2nd edition - on sale in UK

A quick note to say that my book Discover Scottish Church Records (2nd edition) is now on sale from Yorkshire based My History at http://www.my-history.co.uk/acatalog/Discover-Scottish-Church-Records-UTP0281A.html#SID=876. Released last year in Australia and Canada, it now joins several other titles available in the UK from both myself and other Unlock the Past writers.

For a sneak preview of the title, please visit http://britishgenes.blogspot.co.uk/p/kirk-history.html, where you can read the first chapter for free, and get the heads up on what else to expect within the book. I should add that of all the books I have written for Unlock the Past so far, this is one of my faves, as it includes a great deal of material and topics that I have not seen covered in other Scottish genealogy guides.

The range of Unlock the Past books available from My History can be browsed at http://www.my-history.co.uk/acatalog/Unlock-the-Past-Booklets.html. I hope they can help with your research!

Thanks to Aberdeen and North-East Scotland Family History Society

A huge thanks to Aberdeen and North-East Scotland Family History Society's Glasgow branch for its hospitality on Saturday, when I gave my talk Down and Out in Scotland: Researching Ancestral Crisis.

The book on the talk is available at My History in Yorkshire, at http://www.my-history.co.uk/acatalog/Down-and-Out-in-Scotland-Researching-Ancestral-Crisis-UTP0286.html#SID=876 or as a PDF based ebook from Genealogy eBooks at http://www.gen-ebooks.com/down-and-out-in-scotland-ancestral-crisis.html.

A quick message from Buzzy Garden of the society:

"Aberdeen & North-East Scotland Family History Society is on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/anesfhs/ - worth following. For newbies, you are welcome to attend other ANESFHS meetings for exiles in the Central Belt - e.g. Edinburgh Group has the excellent Marjorie Harper on emigrants in Jan, Glasgow Group welcomes back Ken Nisbet on RCEs in Feb, etc. Details (& so much more) available on the recently revamped ANESFHS website at https://www.anesfhs.org.uk/meetings-events/events"

It was good also to catch up with colleagues from the Scottish Genealogy Network at the event - more on the network at www.scottishgenealogynetwork.co.uk.
