Wrong approach
28 March 2022
Reviewer: Mike from New York, USA

The government of Scotland is offsetting the cost of this service via a pay-per-view model. However, asking people to pay to view records that may have no relevance to their genealogical records discourages people from using this site. Other countries offer this information for free, as it encourages tourism for people with ancestors. This would be a better approach.

In summary, I would not recommend Scotlands People to a friend.

Useless

Absolute waste of time. Worst website I have ever been on. Wasted so much time looking for basic info that is not even on the site.

In summary, I would not recommend Scotlands People to a friend.
