Finding Your Emigrant / Immigrant Ancestors

The newest Find My Scottish Ancestors research guide is now live on my website.


This one deals with Scottish emigrants and emigration records in general.  If you had ancestors who left these shores and built new lives in the 'new world' then this guide may help you to trace your Scots roots on this side of the world.


If your ancestors left from Scotland and immigrated to the USA, Canada, Australia or New Zealand then the guide will be particularly useful, but it does also contain links to other useful sites and resources that deal with emigration on a worldwide scale, so do have a look.

The guide gives an overview of what you can do from home, and the other types of resources that are available here in Scottish archives and in archives across the rest of the UK.  Have a look at the Find My Scottish Ancestors Emigrants and Emigration Research Guide and remember that the Beginners Guide to Tracing Your Scottish Ancestors is also available on my website.

Hope these help...
