Scotland's first female herald appointed

Congratulations to Elizabeth Roads on being appointed Scotland's first ever female herald, having worked at the Court of the Lord Lyon since 1975. Elizabeth very kindly proof read the chapter on heraldry in my book Researching Scottish Family History earlier this year, and kept me straight on a few points!
