	Jean sorry for not replying sooner. Only just saw your message when scanning the board. I've only used the Family History Room at the MItchell once before and it was a very quick visit. I spoke to the earlier this eek and they told me they hold English and Welsh BMD indexes on microfiche for 1837-2000. I would assume they have SCottish ones too. I'm going to try and get there this evening to have a look around and familiarise myself with what they have. The other alternative for Glasgow is the LDS centre on Julian Avenue, kelvinside - although I've yet to get an answer on the phone to find out when they're open Zoe
