-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. $12.00) gives you access for 90 days, and you have 30 page credits with which you are able to make searches, see the results, and view then print copies of the documents. 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.
