Hello Liz

I accessed it yesterday online at Ancestry.com. I used my local FHC as
they have a subscription to Ancestry. I believe there is a FHC film
available and I notice that my local Genie society the AIGS has a CD to
look at.

My find of it was accidental as I had just entered my ancestor's name
into Ancestry for Scotland and it popped up. Needless to say I was very
happy as I had been searching for a birth/death for a long time. I did
have a marriage. To give the age at death was a bonus - not all the
entries in the index had that.

Hello Jennifer:

Is this index somewhere I could look into it: Is it online, the FHC or
somewhere in Scotland?
