Thanks, Peter, appreciate the highlight.
ReplyDeleteYour work with the Scottish censuses has shown me a completely different use for the information contained therein; compiling, if you like, a social history of parts of the islands.
The way you and I use a blog in the context of local history, turns it an easily manipulated website, not requiring in-depth technical know-how.
Continue the good work, and thanks again.
I forgot to include Tributes from the Lewis War Memorial, which lists tributes from the Stornoway Gazette from 1917 and 1918 for the Fallen.
