- The UK family history website, Findmypast, has announced the publication of a vast online collection of “Old Parish Registers” in collaboration with 9 local archives and organizations across Scotland. “Dating back to 1561 and spanning 450 years Scottish history, the new collection contains more than 10.7 million historical documents chronicling baptisms, marriages, burials and more.” Read the full details https://www.findmypast.com/blog/new/scottish-old-parish-registers. My Stuarts, Allardyces, Grants, and Edwards are calling.

- MyHeritage has acquired “90.91% of the share capital and 89.11% of the voting rights of Filae, a leading genealogy service in France.” It’s another boost for those of us with European roots. I hear my French ancestral lines urging me to investigate! Read the MyHeritage blog for more details. My Daoust, Boyer, Vinet, and other ancestor names are begging to be checked.
