| For a list of Midlothian museums, go to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_museums_in_Scotland List of museums in Scotland] in Wikipedia. Scroll down to Edinburgh and Midlothian. The parishes in historic Midlothian are listed in the [https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Midlothian_(Edinburghshire),_Scotland_Genealogy#Parishes FamilySearch Research Wiki].
| | ==Register Offices== |
| | At [https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ '''ScotlandsPeople'''] one can search the indexes and obtain a digital copy of the record for a small fee within minutes. However, sometimes additional help is available from local registrars. For example, proof of death and close family relationship can make more recent records available that would otherwise be restricted by privacy laws. |
