Hi Nicholas,

Are you attempting to find ancestors, descendants or both? Have you tried www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk yet? Also, the free site by the Latter Day Saints Church, www.familysearch.org is getting much more useful every day with the addition of many new records.

Hi nik,

Just to confirm....was Catherine's m/s MacArthur as well as being her married name?

Also, when searching have you allowed for Mc/Mac (Soundex)
