This page explains what the records are, where they came from, what they show, how they compare with the lists kept by others, what the gaps mean, and how to search them for somebody, incl...

This page lists where pictures of the highlands and of our peoples can be found, which of them may be reused and on what terms, what the licenses mean, and how we credit what we use, so that families, teachers and writers can do the same.
