The addition of the Highland Research Tour
has opened up space in the May 2017 Tour which will be taking place in
Edinburgh. The reason for this is people moving from the Edinburgh Tour to the
new Highland Research Tour.
The Edinburgh Tour dates are May 1 - 10,
2017 with May 1 being the day of arrival. This tour is the one that has been
taking place for about 5 and a half years. We spend three full days at the
ScotlandsPeople Centre, which also houses the National Archives. We spend two
full days at the National Library of Scotland, with one of those days being in
the Maps building.
The weekend is free for you to go to the
area of Scotland where your ancestor lived and if you would like, I can connect
you with my colleague, Ian, who will create a tailor made ancestral experience
for you. The Monday following the weekend is free for you to conduct research
in the area of Scotland where your ancestor lived, to research at the Scottish
Genealogy Society, return to either the ScotlandsPeople Centre or National
Library. If you would prefer time off to enjoy the country, you can opt to
sight-see or shop.
This is the most popular genealogy research
tour. It includes pre-tour preparation for several months ahead of time so that
you are well prepared for your time in Scotland.
There are two spaces open for the May 2017Edinburgh Tour. If you are interested, simply send me an email. This is the
only tour that accommodates spouses, cousins, sisters, friends or any one who
is not researching. The Highland tour does not. Non genealogy companions travel
for 40% of the tour fees.
