Bibliography and Sources
Many of the Scottish resources are to be found in the National Archives, the Public Library and the National Library of Scotland, all in Edinburgh. The on line catalogue of the National Library is especially helpful in identifying sources and may be accessed on the Internet at www. nls.uk . Major libraries are to be found in Glasgow, such as the Mitchell Library, and local libraries and Family History societies in the south west of Scotland also hold publications of interest.
The bibliography below includes some small pamphlets as well as major scholarly works. It is in four broad categories and offered as a source of further reading. Many of the books are out of print but may be available from antiquarian booksellers and companies specialising in re prints. It is always worthwhile to enquire of your local library about a book which may be available through an inter library loan service.
