Frances Black runs Scottish Ancestor based in the Kingdom of Fife
I been involved with Scottish Family Research for over 30 years. Tracing families for clients in Fife and beyond. I started by researching my own family in Wigtownshire in South West Scotland and also Liverpool. Then I started on my husband’s family in West Lothian and Lanark. However, over 15 years ago I set up in business, helping clients from all over the world to come and discover where their Ancestors came from, and helping them discover the rich Heritage of Scotland. Now residing in Fife that is where most of my work is now.
In my non-genealogy life, I am a farmer’s daughter/wife, originally from Airyolland Farm, near Port William, in Wigtownshire. The family moved to Airdrie Farm near Anstruther, Fife in 1952. I then moved to Braeside of Lindores just outside Newburgh, Fife when I got married. My Interests are enjoying time with my family, holidays, gardening, and volunteering at our local Museum.
