It can be a confusing business, tracing one's ancestors. Many people get lost or discouraged poking through dusty archives or seeing an error message popping up on the computer screen yet again. This book is a user's guide to ancestor-hunting, picking out the best websites, archives and libraries to start from, and generally demystifying the trail. Cameron Taylor believes that the search for one's ancestors helps you to work out who you really are, and this book provides a great starting point to uncovering your past.

CAMERON TAYLOR was born in Orkney and grew up in Orkney and Aberdeen. He studied History at the University of Aberdeen, and embarked on a career in the Civil Service. In 1984 Cameron returned to Orkney to become Chief Executive of the Orkney Tourist Board. In 1999 Cameron set up Seabridge Consultants, a heritage and tourism consultancy business specialising in ancestral tourism development. He was co-founder of the Orkney Homecoming in 1999, bringing 250 people of Orcadian descent back to their homeland for a series of reunions. Cameron is also a consultant to AncestralScotland. He has written and lectured on Scottish ancestral heritage throughout Britain, the US and Canada.
