new genealogical data for scotland

[Sawney Bean]

A free genealogical website? Aye, wishful thinking on my behalf - I'm still waiting for a freebie DNA swab test so that some ex-research grad. can determine I'm descended from a Mesolithic hunter, or Pict, or Polar Bear, or pineapple or whatever...

I'll stop being lazy and visit the Public Records Office in Edinburgh meself, then it'll be just the cost of a bus fare.

Aye, and if it were easy for me to visit Aberdeenshire, I would be there in a heartbeat.

My wife's been testing it out and spent 20.00 there over the last two days, she managed to take her family line back to the 1600s in a very short period of time traving 100+ ancesters. Doesn't help her entire mother's line and half her father's is scottish.
I early on got a leap on her though, typed in Gambino to google with my great grandmother's name and her father and had 250 years of lineage in about 30 seconds. Just can't seem to trace the muir line here in the states.

My Aunt has been using this site for some time, and recommended it to me also, she said ti was fairly easy to use, and cheap...which is even better...
