The new records are for
families connected with the Isles of Harris, Berneray and St
Kilda.
From the announcement:
“The database also allows access to two further unique features - family
notes and family sheets. These take the researcher
beyond research
into individual persons to research into whole
families. The family
notes give a summary of the family history. They are
based on the 1851
census as a datum-line, working back as far as
possible – usually to
the generation born in about 1750/60, and forward as
far as 1920. The
family sheets are hand-written work-sheets, compiled
by Bill Lawson for
each family, showing the lines of descent in the male
line, together
with cross referencing of the female line to their
spouses’ family
sheets. There is also a gazetteer available, with a
summarised history
of each township for those less familiar with Harris.”
