visit to edinburgh

Post by annpa » Thu Aug 20, 2009 3:45 pm

i'm sorry if this question has been raised and answered before.

I'm going to be in Scotland for a week in September and hope to spend a day in Edinburgh doing some research. what can I find where? I'd like to find some BMDs and try to find some missing members of the family. Where should I go and do I need to book a session?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for such a prompt reply. I have been on the site and will book my place. it seems to have everything together and the digitisation means you need not go around searching (at least for what I want).

Thanks again

I am butting in here to show my appreciation to Wilma for the edinburgh link. What a help and thanks to annpa for bringing it to light. All I need now is to is to get the chance to visit the place, hopefully this year.
