I don't often complain BUT we are now into light nights and the excuse given by the National Records of Scotland's "management" to close the NRS at 4pm Mon to Fri doesn't wash any more! @ScotlandsPeople and @NationalRecordsofScotland are management going to change back the hours at all?????

I'm on the hunt for a portrait of Peter Burn Swinton who had been the factor of the Yester Estate in Gifford from 1856 to 1911. The artist was Geirge Fiddes Watt a Scottish portrait painter. I'm contacting the National Portrait Gallery. Welcome any suggestions.

Anyone seen "That Christmas" on Netflix? It's fabulous. Love it. Watched it twice already. Ed Sheeran's song and Coldplay at the end make this a real treasure for the family x

Today after giving a talk to @sogorg.bsky.social one of the hosts told me that their ancestor had been the factor of Yester Estate before my ancestors Peter Burn Swinton! Small world. I feel I'm meant to find out even more. Love accidental genealogy 🥰

It depends in which parish and if they survive. Have you had a look in the NRS Catalogue?
