Thank you, Monica. I'll be posting names in the appropriate county once I get a feel for how things are done here.

Scotland / Re: Optimise Scotlandspeople searches

Thank you for these tips! I am in Canada, and have Scots rellies in 3 of my 4 grandparent's lines, so far! There are also Scots rellies in 3 of the 4 grandparent's lines on my husband's side. We have a good starting point for 'his' side from a handwritten family tree one of his aunts compiled on a visit to Scotland in the early 60s. Unfortunately I didn't know about this tree until after she died, so was unable to go over it with her. Still lots of good leads, though.
My daughter, who normally lives in Surrey but who is in NZ for 18 months, has spent an enormous amount of money on family history in the past with Scotland's People, often only to find it isn't the correct person. Both of my husband's grandmothers are extremely elusive, one from Ayrshire and one from Aberdeenshire. I will find their parents eventually!!!!!
