One of the documents that started me on the #FamilyHistory trail. I found it (aged 12) in a suitcase filled with old photos and documents in my granny's wardrobe, and couldn't rest until I made sense of it all.

In 1839, someone made these careful copies from the parish records of Kiltarlity in #Invernessshire of baptisms of the children of John Fraser, sawyer, and his wife Margaret, from between 1811 and 1823. Their second son was my 3x g-grandfather.
