The civil registration records and indexes are available online at [http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk].&nbsp;This is a fee-based website, but the miminum fee of 6 GBP (approx. $10.00) gives you access to the database for 90 days, and you have 30 page credits with which you&nbsp;may&nbsp;make searches, see the results, and view&nbsp;documents. (One&nbsp;credit per page of search results viewed and five credits per document viewed.)&nbsp; You may then print a copy of the document at no further cost.&nbsp; It is every much worth the cost. If you are not able to go to the Family History Library to use the microfilms, this is probably a better option for you.
