Research Day One ScotlandsPeople Centre

We travelled down to Princes Street this morning to spend the day trawling the records at SP Centre. The weather has been quite glorious since our arrival in Scotland and it was almost difficult to be indoors. However, after an orientation to the Centre and the records it holds, we were assigned computers and before long we were deeply immersed in the lives of our ancestors.

 

 

Only when we ventured over to the cafe did we notice how spectacular the weather was. The weather made the short jaunt through the Archivists Garden quite pleasant.

All too soon, it seemed, it was time to be finished for the day. Everyone had a successful and productive day. Plans were made for how to spend the evening. Mine included catching up with family.
