Scots Find

I thought well some folk may get something from it,
what got me going back to Scots Find was I saw on eBay UK someone SELLING the Registrar of marriages Edinburgh 1595-1700 and Einburgh Monumental Inscriptions St.Cuthbert and I thought I am sure you can get them on Scots Find and its also copywrite
I am not sure if this is where the seller got them from as he has a lot of other things
but an awful lot of copying of stuff that I know is freely avail and then selling on ebay goes on
