Argyll records

We are adding hundreds of thousands of extracted historical records to our website - including rolls of male heads of families, baptismal and marriage registers, Kirk Session records and Poor Law records. To see the records currently available for each parish, follow the links below. We don't yet have records for every parish, but remember to keep coming back, as we are adding new records every day.

As well as records relating to individual parishes, we have now also published an index to Fort William (Argyll) Sheriff Court Extract Decrees (NRS reference SC52/2/1) here.
