ScotlandsPeople welcomes Scotland's people

General Register House On Saturday 25 September 2010 we threw our doors open to anyone interested in learning about researching their family tree. General Register House welcomed a total of 2,588 visitors, and New Register House 957 - a grand total of 3,545.

Visitors were able to enjoy guided tours of General Register House, learning about the records we store inside Robert Adam's wonderful Georgian building. There were 9 tours in total. There were also talks about the Centre and Scottish family history in the New Register House seminar facility (6 presentations altogether). There were also mini-taster sessions in the Reid room at GRH. (8 sessions).

All of the events were fully booked with standing room only for some of the talks. Visitors were able to order extracts from the Public Counter in New Register House and our shop and café facilities also did a roaring trade.
Roll on Doors Open Day 2011!
