Have been to the Scottish Documents website. How does one use this? Are
the documents online?

Sorry to be so dense. Thanks. Elaine Suhre

> About this Index
>
> Every effort has been made to make the index as accurate and comprehensive
as
> possible. Each entry lists the surname, forename, title, occupation and
place
> of residence (where these are given) of the person whose will, testament
or
> inventory was recorded. Currently, it also gives the court in which the
> document was recorded. When the image becomes available, links to 'more
> information' and the option to 'add to cart' will be added, usually
showing
> the type of document available and its precise reference.
> SURNAMES & FORENAMES FIELDS
> We cannot guarantee that every surname or forename is spelt correctly.
> Similarly, we cannot guarantee that all information about the occupation
and
> place of residence of the deceased person is given in the index. If you do
> not find a specific surname in our index (which does use Soundex to
retrieve
> results when you uncheck the 'exact match' option) then try variations on
> that surname if they exist. Go to the 'Research Tools' section of our
website
> to find variations on specific surnames and forenames.
> DESCRIPTION FIELD
> The description field currently contains several different categories of
> information, i.e. title, status, occupation and place of residence. This
> reflects the layout of the printed indexes to the wills up to 1800. You
can
> search on any one of these categories at a time in addition to names and
> dates.
> This field also often contains the name of the spouse of the deceased
> ('relict' in the case of widows). This is because we are currently unable
to
> extract this information in order to add it to the main index. Therefore,
if
> you cannot find the name you are looking for in the 'surname' field try a
> search for it in the 'description' field.
> COURT/COMMISSARIOT FIELD
> The original index to Scottish Wills & Testaments often did not include
> parish or county information so we have been unable to include this
> information in many cases, or to enable a search by parish or county.
Where
> the parish name appeared in the original index, you should find it by
> searching in the 'DESCRIPTION' field. We have retained the original record
> divisions of Scottish Commissary and Sheriff Courts. You can select one of
> these to search in our 'Court/Commissariot' Field. To find out more about
the
> areas of Scotland that these courts covered, go to 'Research Tools' and
then
> 'Places in Scotland'.
> THE DOCUMENTS
> This index is not just to Scottish Wills but also to Testaments and
> Inventories as well. This means that the search results produced
incorporate
> a variety of different documents. We cannot guarantee the quality or
quantity
> of information included in these documents.
> As the information in the index is edited, we will add in the different
> document types for easy identification (from the 'More Info' link and
under '
> Additional Information'). Index entries do not include names of executors,
> trustees or heirs to the estate.
> For more information on the different types of documents in this index,
have
> a look at our extensive 'Help' section which is linked from every page in
the
> site.
> DATE 'FROM' and 'TO' FIELDS
> The dates given in the index are for the recording of the document in the
> court register. The date of death and the date of the will (if one was
made)
> occur in the text of the document. Usually, the date of recording is
fairly
> soon after the date of death, but occasionally it can be several months or
> even years later.
> MULTIPLE ENTRIES
> Some people in the index have more than one entry. There are various
reasons
> for this: in some Sheriff Courts separate registers were kept for
inventories
> and wills; sometimes an additional inventory was recorded later in the
same
> or a subsequent register; in the Commissary Court registers an 'eik' or
> additional document was sometimes recorded. For more information on the
> different types of documents in this index, have a look at our extensive
> 'Help' section for further information.
> SEARCH RESULTS
> Where your results include the phrase 'Add to Cart' this means that these
> images are currently available for purchase. Where this phrase does not
> appear next to your results, it means that these images are not available
yet.
> Please 'Register with Us' to be kept informed of new additions to the
