Our most recent info is available on the Scottish Discussion Circle Noticeboard.  The Circle meets 4 times a year in March, June, September and November on the 3rd Saturday afternoon to hear speakers, tell stories of Scottish history and families, and assist each other in our research.  We aim to promote research into Scottish family history and promote an understanding of the nuances relating to research into Scottish family history, cultural heritage and society.  We publish Thistle 4 times a year with stories and help for research.
