Welcome to the Births Deaths and Marriages Exchange for Scotland ~ a free resource for Scotland genealogy and Scottish family history. For anyone researching their family history in Scotland, the aim of the Exchange is to provide a free resource for sharing information about ancestors found in Scotland. The site does not permit offers involving the replication and distribution of copyright material gained from GROS.

Please do not assume that a contributor is related to the person they have listed - quite often they are not.

IMPORTANT: When you are requesting information from a contributor, please be specific. A suggested minimum would be to include three identifiers - ie, name, date and place.

The site is not for information downloaded from the LDS Family Search site.

I have no personal expertise in Scottish family history or genealogy and I maintain this site because of my ancestral connection to Scotland, so it is unlikely that I can help with specific enquiries regarding your research. If you email me with a query, your message will probably go unanswered.
