NEW FOR THIS OPEN DAY!
If you have Scottish ancestors and need some guidance on researching them, pay a visit to the Research Room (Hall 1) and don?t forget to bring your information with you!
SCOTTISH HELP DESK Dr. Ian Macdonald
Dr. Macdonald?s research has focused on the north-east area of Scotland ? Aberdeenshire, Kincardine and Banff but he was born in Aberdeen, brought up in Dumfries and educated in Edinburgh. His own family covers a vast array of Scottish peasants so his expertise in Scottish research will benefit those looking for their Scottish roots.
?
Dr. Macdonald has an MSc in genealogical studies and is an online tutor for the post ? graduate Certificate course at the University of Strathclyde. He writes on family history and publishes articles regularly.
The Aberdeen and North ? East of Scotland FHS awarded him the 2008 Bruce Henderson award for family history writing and published his book ? ?The Alexanders of Bourtie 1696 ? 1886?. Most recently he has been researching the notion that studying a single family can be a sound basis for gaining insight to general ideas such as the middle classes.

Parking
The building work around the Leisure Centre and car park has been completed. Parking should be possible in nearby streets (e.g. Loop Road) if the car park is full.
We have just been advised that access to the stallholders? car parking (shown as ?Additional Car Park? on our map) for our Open Day at Woking Leisure Centre will now be via the main entrance in Kingfield Road as shown on the reverse of the gold leaflet we enclosed with your earlier joining instructions. Bear right into the main car park and continue straight through this over the small bridge and the stallholders? car park is the usual car park (for those who have been before) which is on the left at the rear of the Leisure Centre. There will be no access via Elmbridge Lane as there are now bollards in place on the slip road. Please do use the car park at the rear as this is the only direct access on level ground to the halls.
Not Local?
If you have Surrey ancestors why not combine a visit to the Surrey History Centre in Woking on Friday with attendance on the Open Day on the Saturday? Please see website for information about local accommodation. http://www.woking.gov.uk/woking/visit/wheretostayandeat/stay
