Re: Where did you hear of TalkingScot (2011)
Googling for my place of birth, the Queen Mary Maternity Home, Edinburgh, led me to a posting on your Forum.

Hello Val and
Glad to know those google bots are doing their job! I see you're already contributing to someone's post about the hospital - local knowledge is always helpful, thanks!
And if you come up against any brick walls in your search, don't hesitate to ask a question! We enjoy a good genealogical puzzle
All the best,
Sarah

Hi flyrod,

Re: Where did you hear of TalkingScot (2011)
Googled a name and got a hit in a forum. Now have contact with a distant relative. Now I'm starting to think of the many unanswered questions I have... Have been to Scotland twice and attempted to find my Gr Gr Grandparents graves. Maybe it's time to ask for help ? Cheers from New Zealand, and if anyone has any question at all about this place, then ask away !

I found this site via Scotlands People. Not sure how to use it yet as a beginner in all this, but thanks for having it.
