For today's #FamilyHistoryFriday post we thought we would highlight School Log Books. Although they are unlikely to tell you much about pupils at the school, they can be a great source of information if you are looking for a relative who was a teacher.

As wills were approved by the courts, we don't hold many here. The official copies are held at the National Records of Scotland, with some available on ScotlandsPeople. We only hold the occasional copy version, like this one. #FamilyHistoryFriday #Dundee #Archives

One of our volunteers recently indexed the School Board Officer Reports from 1908-1920. These relate to parents taken to court for not sending their child to school. The index is available from the FDCA website. fdca.org.uk/Dundee_Educati… #Dundee #FamilyHistoryFriday #FamilyHistory

Officially the first census to record names was in 1841. However a list of #Dundee inhabitants from 1801 survives. It only lists the head of the household, but will tell you where a family lived in Dundee in 1801. Read more here: dundeecityarchives.wordpress.com/2022/04/07/180… #FamilyHistoryFriday

We recently posted the latest in our "My Ancestor was" series of blogs. This time we take a look at some of the sources available to for those researching sailors and ship masters. #Dundee #Archives #FamilyHistoryFriday dundeecityarchives.wordpress.com/2024/03/14/my-…

Electoral Registers are good for tracing where someone lived. But be careful - not everyone is listed. We hold registers for 1939 and 1951 onwards. 1857-1939 can be searched an viewed at findmypast.co.uk or at the Central Library. #FamilyHistoryFriday #Dundee #Archives

Only 3 registers for the Eastern poorhouse survive. They cover 1856-1878, 1903-1908 & 1935-1956 (this one is closed for 100 years). The 1st is indexed on the FDCA website: fdca.org.uk/Dundee_Poor_Re…. The 2nd volume is on our volunteers to do list. #FamilyHistoryFriday

Our Top Tip: Use our List of Occupations. It includes definitions, links to detailed information on the unions which relate to various trades/occupations & the genealogical sources relevant to them available in the MRC. warwick.ac.uk/services/libra… #FamilyHistory #FamilyHistoryFriday

Directories are a great source of information. They can be useful for many things including Family History. Although many of the early versions only included the more wealthy, later 19th century and 20th century editions contain a wider section of society. #FamilyHistoryFriday

We are often asked about burials. We hold records for the Howff, the New Howff, St Peters, St Andrews and St Aidans. For the Eastern, Western or Balgay, you'll need to ask the Burials department about those. Read more here: dundeecityarchives.wordpress.com/2020/11/12/cem… #FamilyHistoryFriday #Dundee

In the 16th Century, not everyone could read and write. When making a will (which required a signature) some people, instead of marking an "X", drew their own styled mark as seen here on this 1591 will of John Browne, blacksmith. #FamilyHistoryFriday #FamilyHistoryMonth #Wills

A census for Digswell House from 1821 (Ref: DP/34/29/3), twenty years prior to the 1841 census. In this census only a head count needed to be recorded. On the left-hand side, are male names, and on the right are female names. #FamilyHistoryFriday #FamilyHistoryMonth #DYK
