After a long summer break, the genealogy world returns to its winter schedule. And we're back with our regular list of history related talks and events in Scotland.
Note that there may be a charge for some of these events, and some may be for members only. We will be publishing lists of upcoming talks and events regularly - if you are organising a talk or event relating to Scottish genealogy or history, please let us know and we will be happy to add your events to our list.
