excuse my ignorance for Scottish history, I haven't had to look here before so have no idea where to start.

Is there a site for searching births, deaths and marriage registrations.

Thankyou in advance

regards
Erica

Hi

Births & Marriages between 1855 & 1875 are in the IGI having been transcribed direct from the Registers

http://www.familysearch.org/

Hi Erica

Hope you enjoy your Scottish research

There's a good guide here on Rootschat by Pam www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,24468.0.html which outlines research resources and what you will find on certificates etc.

Good luck!

Monica
