Anyone have any skill at reading the old Scottish writing style known as Secretary Hand?
We have a document that is quite only (1680) that may have a McOnlea from Hamilton in Lanarkshire, but it is nigh-unto-impossible to read if you're not experienced at reading that style.
If anyone would like to take a look, drop me a line and I'll send it for your reading pleasure.
