Please let me know if you got my scans of the Robert MacLeod Papers Evelyn as I am not sure they went through.
They are of no use though as they are just what he had in the bank in England and abroad,other than that Catherine McKinnon was his sister.....And he died intestate..

checked info for 1911
The latest information is that the census will be available sometime in April 2011 via the scotlandspeople website.
Payment will be by pay-per-view credits - there is no plan to introduce subscriptions. If you live in Scotland, you can obtain credits at a reduced price from your local library. There is a little publicised Scotlands People Voucher Scheme which allows public libraries to sell discounted vouchers directly to the public for non-commercial use. You have to visit the library in person.

It will also be available at the same time in the ScotlandsPeople Centre in Edinburgh. Unfortunately the current daily rate of £10 will go up to £15 in April although they do offer a one hour free taster session, first come, first served at certain times of the day.

Note also that, unlike in England and Wales, the individual household schedules for the Scottish 1911 census have been destroyed so it will not be possible to view these. Instead the enumeration books have been digitised, similar to that for the 1901 census, except that the entries for each person go across a double page. This includes the 'fertility' questions for married women, that is years married, number of children and how many were still alive.

The Registrar General for Scotland has announced that the 1911 census will be released on Tuesday 5 April 2011.
