Get your free copy of Keith Gregson's e-book, exploring the links between Shetland and the north east of England.
To celebrate Scottish Family History Month, Keith Gregson, a regular author on our sister title Family Tree, is kindly offering free copies of his online book on the links between the north east of England and Shetland, called From Shetland to Keel Square.
The book will be of interest to anyone with north east or Shetland ancestry or a general interest in maritime affairs - and particularly the merchant navy.
The ruined croft at 'The Taing of Houss' on Burra Isle, Shetland, the address from which Keith's great-grandfather was married in 1878
Keith's tune, written in honour of the above croft, recorded by top Shetland fiddler Jenny Keldie.
Keith said: 'When people have asked for a copy so far they have got back to me with information useful to my own family history research'.
You can request your copy of the book by contacting Keith by e-mail or if encountering problems via his website.
