Coverage - Register of Sasines
This is an index of the parts of the General and Patricular Registers of Sasines, held at the National Records of Scotland in Edinburgh. The General Register of Sasines for the period 1736-1780 is not indexed at present, and there are also no indexes prior to 1781 in a number of the Particular Registers of Sasines. Our index so far covers the following:
General Register of Sasines covering all counties from 1 January 1777 to 31 December 1779 (note that apart from in the case of renunciations, the General Register minute books for this period only record the names of those receiving sasine).
Particular Register of Sasines for the counties of Stirling, Clackmannan and the Stewartry of Menteith (part of Perthshire) covering from 30 November 1726 to 27 December 1734.
Particular Register of Sasines for the counties of Roxburgh, Selkirk and Peebles covering from 14 February 1622 to 16 March 1622 and the year 1780, as well as entries from the General Register for the same counties in 1780.
The Register of Sasines index now contains 5,160 entries.
