Register of Testaments Aberdeen [Scotland], 1715-1800
Frances J. McDonnell
Reg. Price: $13.5
(1997), 1998, 5½x8½, paper, alphabetical, 118 pp, Heritage Books
Some of the most important sources of information on our ancestors are to be found in the form of testaments. These documents can be expected to reveal the name and designation of the deceased, normally the date of death, the executor, an inventory of assets, liabilities, debtors and creditors, and usually a will. Registers of Testaments are generally available from the late 16th century to the early 19th century, and these contain significant material of relevance to the family historian. It should, however, be noted that not everyone left a will, and of those made, not all found their way into the books of the Commissary Court. The documents relating to those listed in this booklet can be viewed at the Scottish Record Office, Edinburgh.

Roll of Apprentices, Burgh of Aberdeen, 1622 - 1796
Frances J. McDonnell
Reg. Price: $12.5
1998, 3 parts in 1, 110 pp, Heritage Books
To become a burgess of Aberdeen, one had to be the son of an existing Aberdeen burgess, marry the daughter of a burgess, buy the right, or serve an apprenticeship under a craftsman or merchant in the burgh. For an apprentice who did not qualify on other grounds, it was of paramount importance that his apprenticeship indenture ber recorded to ensure that he became entitled in due course to apply to become a burgess. Laid out in alphabetical order, this work is based on the Victorian antiquarian Alexander M. Munro.
