Speakers announced for Scottish Indexes 20 conference in April

Graham and Emma Maxwell's next Scottish Indexes conference takes place on April 15th 2023. The following speakers have now been announced:

  • Making the most of Scottish Prison Records - by Emma Maxwell
  • Caledonian Asylum Petitions - by Lorna Kinnaird
  • My Cousin Sophia - by Karen de Bruyne
  • Scottish Kirk Session Records - by Chris Paton
  • Body Snatching and Dissecting the Destitute - by Dee Hoole
  • Using DNA For Family History - by Michelle Leonard 

As well as answering questions at the end of each presentation (which will be run as a programme twice in the day to cater for international attendees), we'll also be doing the usual trying to pull rabbits out of thin air in the two hour long Q&A sessions, which is always fun!

The conferences are free to attend, with donaltions accepted to help with running costs. Further details are available at https://www.scottishindexes.com - hopefully see you there!
