ScotlandsPeople Update

The May newsletter from ScotlandsPeople announces the addition of more than 2.8 million new indexed names and addresses for owners, tenants and occupiers of properties throughout Scotland for 1940  — 60,000 new digital images. As these were used for the collection of council tax, there was considerable motivation to get the original compilation correct. With these additions, you can now search over 120 million individual valuation roll entries from 1855 to 1940.
