Re: What software to choose
Alan, Thank you for all that info, I did not realise there were quite so many, after checking Wikipedia! I really do need the simplest option, Ancestral Quest is a new one to me so I will go back and check it, as it seems quite basic and might be a good choice for me. Wilma, I have the same problem,...

Re: New Zealand Electoral Rolls
Hi Alan
Thank you for those links, I was told that a death certificate would state how many years she had been in New Zealand for, so I might bite the bullet and go for this.
I always forget how much newspapers can help, so will also be having a look at that one.
Many thanks
Ann

Re: Can't find a death record anywhere!!
Hi Kirsty,
A Quick check on Scotlandspeople showed up a Robert Condie died in Coatbridge, Lanark in 1940, born 1859, but it didn't show when I added the Fraser surname, could this be your gt grandfather?

Hi Elaine,
Thank you for this link, I have been searching for anything on an ancestor from Old Machar, without luck, but have just found a reference to her on the site, thank you, brilliant! Lots of wonderful photos to view too, by the looks of it.
