Sue, I have no idea but have you been using the Scotlands People site? It cost £6 for 30 credits and I haven't had to orer a cert yet. Cost 1 credit to search and 5 credits to look at the entry which gives you absolutely loads of info and of course you can then save the image. Much better than the English search sites. Sorry if thats not what you were looking for. Pam

Hi Sue, No Scotland has its own Birth/death/Marriage index; as Pam says can be located on ScotlandsPeople. Kay;

i use the scotlands people site all te time, try to be as accurate as possible with dates and names etc as you can get an awful lot of returns and can end up costing a lot of credits. kate from scotland
