Folk Lore and Genealogies of Uppermost Nithsdale
Folk Lore and Genealogies of Uppermost Nithsdale. William Wilson. Dumfries. 1904. 310 pages. Contains ""sketches, traditions, and reminiscences of by-gone days."" The stories and sketches were originally penned for a local paper. The second part of the book contains genealogies of families from the area. Nithsdale (Srath Nid in Scottish Gaelic), also known by its anglicized gaelic name Strathnith or Stranit, is the valley of the River Nith, which flows north to south through south-west Scotland. It has historically been a strategic area as it forms an invasion route into central Scotland, from England.

Internet Genealogy Magazine Reviews WorldVitalRecords.com
We simply couldn't have said it better ourselves! The most recent issue of Internet Genealogy magazine includes a 4-page article by Diane L. Richard detailing the incredible growth and benefits of an online subscription to the worldvitalrecords.com content collection. Here are a few quotes:
"UK BMD and Census Records. The addition of these records helps make the World Collection comparable to Ancestry's World Collection."
"Each subscription service on its own was just a bit too narrow for my limited needs, or had enough overlap with other databases that I currently subscribe to, to make it hard to justify individual subscriptions. That is now a moot point as I can 'one-stop-shop' at WorldVitalRecords.com"
