Hi Anne:

An excellent doorway to specific information on each diocese/parish. The records will provide an excellent resource to those able to attend the archives for searching.

Looking forward to the day they become available online.

Oh Jings - sorry for posting a dodgy link. :oops:

A good job you picked it up Tracey - thank you!

I was away in a wee world of my own after finding some people I had been looking for (St. Joseph's Parishioners in Allandale, Bonnybridge) and I didn't think to try others.

Hi Anne

Im not sure that those links are dodgy more like just seriously annoying as you can stop them downloading but you cant get rid of the pop up for ages !

Hi Tracey & Anne:

:oops: I didn't try the links to the individual parishes - I only tried some of the Diocesan links.

It seems that there is a newer version of the Scottish Catholic Media Office, but this page has still managed to float around. :roll:

I located http://www.scottishchristian.com/church ... olic.shtml which has information about all Scotland's Roman Catholic Archdioceses, Dioceses, Parishes and the Media Office. (better still, no pop-ups or broken links). :)

Hope this helps,
Frances
