Hi, I am new to this, can someone recommend a good site to locate information for ancestors in the UK? I have my late grandad's DOB and first and last names, but I am not getting any information. Most sites lead to the USA. Or they're prior to the dates I need. My grandad was born in 1908, I am assuming in Scotland. Cheers Jen

Check out the Links sectionon the left hand side of this board. FreeBMD, Family Search and 1837 online are my favourite ones!
