We are always interested in microfilm/microfiche of original
records, in particular parish records, Scottish census and electoral
registers.
Also, if you have old books (pre 1930) of parish record transcripts,
electoral registers, poll books and directories, let us know.
We have the latest scanning technology to allow us to photograph
loan books without damage.
We are happy to reward you for the loan of these items, simply
