The best source online for Scottish records is Scotlandspeople.It is a pay-for-use site, but well worth it.The parish records and civil records for Scotland are also available on microfilm through the LDS, but the same information is available at the Scotlandspeople site, from the comfort of your own home, albeit for a higher price.
