Why are some Scottish Government bodies still closed to the public, just had wasted journey from Falkirk to ScotlandsPeople to obtain a copy of a death certificate NatRecordsScot website said I could do this, as seen in the screengrab. A round trip of about 3 hours by bus for this

Sometimes less is more.

If you’re struggling to find someone in our records, try omitting their middle name.

For example: inventor John Logie Baird was registered with his middle name spelled slightly differently, as “John Loggie Baird”.
